how do I stop outlook 07 deleting emails from exchange server?

[SuCVS]

I have a laptop running vista with office 2007. When I connect to my exchange
server (2003) at work outlook downloads e-mails and deletes them from the
server. Therefore they are no longer available for me to access from my
desktop, I can't see any obvious way of stopping this happening. Any Ideas?

Well, I can think of two possibilities.

1) You're connecting to Exchange as an Exchange server and have configured
a PST as the default delivery location.
2) You're connecting to Exchange as a POP server and haven't told it to
leave a copy of the messages on the server.

Now, if this is enough for you to figure out where you went wrong, great.

If not, you might want to explain how you're connecting to the Server.

Waht if you are using a POP3 server?

How do you stop Outlook from deleting emails on the server? Or better yet,
how can you sync the two accounts so that they are both updated?

Examine the account properties. There you'll find a tab containing a check
box that instructs Outlook to leave a copy on the server.
