Hi,

Outlook is not my strong point so forgive me for stating the obvious in the
following issue:

I run several mailboxes through my outlook at work (outlook 2003).  

My IT Department installed a VPN for my on my laptop so that i can access
the server etc from my laptop which is working fine.

I guess I have two options to connect to my work machine.  I can either
remote desktop as i connect to the VPN anyway (this is reaaaaaaaaaal slow) OR
i could set up the Micorsoft Exchange Server on my laptop to run through my
VPN.

I chose the latter as remote desktop takes ages plus i only need my mail.

My mailbox at work is set up as follows:

- Mailbox - My Name
(This includes all my folders and is linked to the server.  New messages
gets downloaded here)

- Personal Folders
(Thsi includes alll my folders and is saved on the local machine at work)

My problem is:

When i connect to my mail on my laptop through my outlook (2003) it
downloads my mail but then removes it from the server back at work (Mailbox -
My Name)(so it basically saves it on my local machine/laptop.)

I need for it to keep a copy on the server/Mailbox - My Name for filing
puposes.

Again, sorry for stating the obvious - Incredibly urgent so didnt want any
confusion.
