Can anyone tell me if it is possible to view the emails from my outlook but
using another computer from another site? I ask this because if my computer
fails then clearly I can not logon to Outlook on my computer till it is
repaired but I was wondering if I could see my emails using another computer.
If there is a way then please keep your answers nice and simple please.
Thanks.
 
Dear Kesh,

are you using an Exchange Server or alocal installation of Outlook with a
"PST" file?

If you use Outlook as "single" installation you can leave all your emails on
your "E-mail server" (provider) and you can download all your emails also
from another computer.

Have a look on this site :

"Leave e-mail messages on your e-mail server"
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA011507931033.aspx

Maybe it helps.
 
Hi Oliver,
I have just installed MS Office Pro 2007 and need to activate Outlook and it
insisted on configuring my email server. When I said no then outlook shutdown
but when I said yes it meant it trasferred all my incoming email from Tiscali
to outlook. My fear is if my PC goes u/s then I will not be able to access my
emails because I am using Outlook but if my emails remain within Tiscali
emailing system then at least I can logon to tiscali and then on to the their
mail system to access my emails.

I hope this may answer your question and also better understand what I was
originally asking. Any further thoughts? In the mean time I shall also try
what you suggested. Thanks.
 
No you cannot view *any* data on your PC if it fails, you can recover data
(assuming the hard disk hasnt failed)
Or you can recover data from your backups.

You can set the Outlook mail account to 'leave a copy on the server for xx
days'
but you wouldnt see sent mail.
