trouble with Microsoft outlook 2007

hey i have this problem

yesterday, i set up outlook on my laptop (wich is not on domain) so i could see my work emails from home while having VPN connected, but now this morning when i showed up at work, my mail in my desktop pc is all gone exept the ones i stored in folders, and when i recive a new mail, i open it, then 10 secs or so after i close it , the mail dissappears from outlook on my desktop work pc (wich is on domain)

but on laptop, all i see is the mail i lost on my desktop pc, i dont see the folders that i stored mails in. but those i see on desktop pc.

also, if i log onto exchange via internet explorer, i dont get any mails there either, its like if all my incoming mail is stored on my laptop now for some reason, when i want it to be stored on work pc (desktop)



any1 know a solution to this problem ?

got it working

Mind sharing the solution which worked for you?

In your outlook configuration set Leave mail on server setting.

If running exchange... use OWA to access your email from home.

it was just a folder issue, all the mails where not in the right folder for some reason

It has to be configured before attaching to the email server and only applies to non-exchange configurations. Exchange automatically leaves the email on the server and forces outlook into more of a portal role than an email client.
