Outlook 2003/Outlook Express 6

[Guest]

I am new to this discussion group thing, so I apologize in advance for my
ignorance.

When I was working for my previous employer, someone helped me set it up so
I could access my work email at home. I could open Outlook on my desktop at
home and it was configured so it was just like I was using Outlook on my
desktop at work. I could access all of my emails in my inbox, deleted items,
sent items, my calendar, ect.. I was NOT using webmail, but my Outlook would
actually log onto the server at work (I think).

I am now trying to set this up the same way with my new employer. I am
using Outlook Express 6 instead of Outlook (unfortunately, since that is what
my employer uses) and I now have it set up so I can view all of my emails
that come in, but once they are downloaded onto my desktop at home I cannot
see them on my desktop at work and vice versa.

I have talked to a few of my IT friends but none of them can seem to figure
out what I need to do.

I appreciate any guidance you can give me!

Thank you-

If you want to be able to access the messages both at work and at home, you
must specify, in your account setup in BOTH programs, to leave messages on
the server. Of course, eventually, you're going to have to delete the
messages off of the server, so you'll need to figure out how to do that
after the messages are received in both locations.
