Synchronising your emal client with two laptops? - GoFuckYourself.com

CarlosTheGaucho · 03-18-2009, 10:24 AM

I just bought me that mini book or how is that called.

What they say is you only need an installation of the MS Office Outlook there, connect the two laptops and it should be no brain breaking procedure to synchronize the emails.

Any experience with this?

I will do this every Tuesday since I travel every Tuesday and it will be also an effective way of a weekly back up of the other data.

Do you know any program that would make synchronizing regular folders / documents easier?

Any experience with this?

Thanks

Ive tried and its a pain in the ass. The easiest solution IMO is M$ Exchange email hosting. Cost like $7 a month per account, but will sync everything automatically. I use it between 2 computers and my iPhone and works wonderful

Sounds cool, I should talk to my hosting provider.

If you're sync-ing a PC and a Mac, then I would go the Exchange route too. You might also look at Kerio, which I've used and hated, but is supposed to work better with both Mac / PC. I don't know the price though.

just tell your email client to leave the messages on the server, then there is a hard copy on the server, and both client PCs will always remain in sync with the mail server. this will however create excessively large mail files on your mail server so just delete old ones off the server once in a while.
