Exchange or not
Hi All,
Looking for a little advice before taking the plunge.
I am looking for a solution to my problems, i have 2 pc in the house both running on internet and recently purchased a phone (htc touch pro) that has great email capabilities etc.
As we are constantly checking email on the move i normally do this via phone or webmail, problem is if i send any emails from web or phone i then do not have these in my main outlook sent/inbox, or if i leave the pc switched on at home and outlook running it automatically downloads the messages so if i check them from a seperate pc i will have no email in the web based inbox.
Also i would liek to be able to work on any pc in the house and all the sent/received mails be on one outlook.
With all of the above in mind what solution will be best for me, exchange or does anyone know of any other software or ways to setup the pc's are available?
If exchange what os do i need to install on one pc and what would the minimum requirements be.
The phone runs windows mobile 6.1, and both other pc's are running xp pro sp3, i have a new pc to replace one of the older oned coming on tuesday this has Vista ulitmate sp1 installed.
Thanks In Advance for any info on this, when i do setup i would like to completley start afresh on the other pc and install all needed software, so i will do a clean reboot.

Q: You want to have the mails which have sent via web or phone also show into the sent item folder of outlook, right?
A: It depends on your configuration of server side; exchange server will be able to sync the send item of outlook with your phone
Q: Youd like to keep a copy of mails in the all outlook clients inbox, right?
A: You just need to have a copy of mails available on the server side, so all clients can download it <Theres an option on the E-mail account configuration of outlook>
Q: You want to know if exchange is the resolution, right?
A: I dont think that exchange is suitable for home; you know that exchange is an application which Microsoft provides to enterprise customer, right?
