Would really appreciate any help that you can provide my query.

I would like to use Outlook as my email client - but also to be able to
access my email via the when - even when I do not have Outlook installed as
the email client.

In box access is not a problem - I have configured a pop 3 email account to
leave a copy on the server indefintely.

But how do I achieve this with sent mail?

Tried various IMAP configurations but cannot seemt to save sent mail on the
web server (as well as in the Outlook PST file).

Can this be done WITHOUT an MSN exchange server?

Apologies if this is a really basic query!

If you are using imap, use a after sending rule to move a copy to the
server. POP3 does not support any folder except inbox - you could cc or bcc
yourself on all sent messages.
 
Thanks Diane, the send rule works with IMAP - so problem has been solved.
Really appreciate the help!

Bye for now.
