I have an employee leaving, another taking her place. If I delete 1st
employee's email account, will her CALENDAR stay, so that 2nd employee can
continue to see/use all of the appts. that 1st employee has already set up?
If simply deleting 1st employee's email account won't accomplish this, how
ELSE can I 'give' 1st employee's calendar (and actually, saved folders/email)
but not email address, to 2nd employee?

Many thanks in advance!!!
 
Two ways to do this. You can have the new employee use the same .pst file as
the old and just change the account info to the new employee so email is
picked up and sent in her name.

Another alternative is to create a new .pst file for the new employee and
copy the calendar from the old. You can then delete the old .pst file.

My personal preference is the former.

Mmm, but I suspect for a while, people (members, we're a member association)
are going to continue to send email to the old person's email address, and I
want to continue to receive those messages on MY machine (so I can reply) so
I think your second option is more viable. How can you copy a calenar from
one account to another?
 
Actually, what I do is keep the old .pst file and add my new employee to the
account list so she can pick up both the new and old mail. Once enough time
has passed, I just delete the old account. This enables your new employee to
have all of the old employee's saved mail, which may be needed in the future.
They just have to remember to reply using the correct email address. :) It
works for us.

It's easy to copy the calendar. You can have more than one .pst file open at
the same time, so long as only one person is using it. Then just drag and
drop the whole calendar, contacts and/or any other folders you want to copy
into the new .pst file. Close it and the new person should be able to then
open it for him or herself. We keep ours on a server so as administrator, I
can open any .pst file not currently in use.

Are you using Exchange as your server?

Yes but I confess that I know next-to-nothing about Exchange....

If you leave the mailbox on the Exchange server, it should still receive
messages and allow access by others to the folders within it.
