I have been a long time user of Outlook. The company I work for uses
Lotus Notes but Notes in no way can compare to Outlook so that is what
I use at home. I currently have a Treo 650 but will soon be getting a
Moto Q with MS Mobile 5.0. Currently I use POP3 email and tried IMAP
but I wasn't really happy with the way it worked. My goal was to be
able to read email on my phone and have it in sync with my computer
when I got home which didn't always work. So I am now thinking about
using an Exchange mailbox by way of Exchange Hosting but I do have a
few questions and concerns. First of all anyone who has used Outlook
for a while knows how important that file called "outlook.pst" is. I
back mine up every night and did once have a crash but quickly and
easily recovered thanks to my backup and therefore I am nervous about
giving up control of Outlook. Here are the questions that I have:
1. Will my computer still maintain a local copy of the .pst file so
that I can still always have a local backup?
2. Currently I have three domains and three email addresses. All are
important becasue they all deal with different things. One is small
business I run, one is a Foundation I run, and one is my personal
email. If I forward all of these (or alias) to my Exchange box will
this work? The only problem that there may be is that it appears that
all replies will come from my Exchange box. Is there anyway around
this?
3. If I run in hosted mode for 2 months and change my mind how hard
is it to go back to what I have been doing for years?
