Default storing e-mail on computer and then accessing the e-mails without going through outlook

Hi there,

Our e-mail comes in on a pop3 server. My Boss wants to set it up so
that we put a copy of all of his client e-mail folders on our backup
drive so that I can access them if I need the information. I looked
through outlook help (we have 2003) and saw some information on
personal folders, but you need to view the messages in a .pst format
through outlook, which is what we want to avoid. We want to be able to
just see the e-mail in question and double click on it to view.

In addition, he would like it so that everytime an e-mail is added to a
folder it will automatically update on the external drive.


Is this possible? My Boss is convinced that it is.

Thank you!

Hi... sorry to be a pain, but I looked at slipstick and didn't see
anything. We can totally buy an addon or something, but I just need to
know what.

Hopefully I am explaining myself in an understandable way... we
basically want an offline archive of our e-mails in order to quickly
reference information. We do not have a microsoft exchange e-mail
server, we have pop3.

I understand...you want to automate the storage of your email as individual
files on your file server/disk. There's nothing that will do that for you
natively. If you didn't find anything at Slipstick (try searching for
'housekeeping' ) I don't know what to tell you, sorry.
