From: ALYM on 5 May 2010 03:26 i HAVE A FILE SERVER WITH MICROSOFT EXCHANGE FOR EMAILS THE WORK STATIONS GET THEIR MAIL FROM IT WHEN i INSTALL A NEW WORK STATION AND SET UP THE EMAIL ACCOUNT IT DOWNLOADS 3-4 YEARS OF EMAILS THE WORKSTATIONS ARE SET TO DELETE FILES AFTER 14 DAYS BUT HOW DO YOU DELETE OLD MAIL OFF THE SERVER
From: BillyBob on 5 May 2010 20:09 Alym, Before you attempt to delete the emails off of the server, I would fix a couple of hardware issues with your keyboard. Firstly, your Caps Lock key is stuck in the locked position. Typing in all caps is difficult to read and construed as SCREAMING. Secondly, your comma (,) and period (.) keys are not working. There is not one character of punctuation in your text. Is that how you learned to write ? Type like you are writing a book.

If you don'[t want the e-mails re-downloaded, simply go into the mailbox on the Exchange server and delete the mail from the mailbox before setting up the client. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.
