The option Leave a copy of message on the server is a bit hard to find, I will explain it in more detail if you need. For now, I want to make sure that we are on the same page.

We're on the same page now, I did misunderstand your post earlier but Stage 2 is what I was referring to.

It seems like setting up his outlook on my computer and selecting "leave a copy of the message on the server" would work perfectly. I google'd that phrase and found instructions on how to find that option.

My knowledge of Outlook is pretty limited, but from my understanding if I check this it will download the e-mails to my hard drive while still letting him view the e-mails on his computer, correct?

You've been a HUGE help so far!!

Exactly! Glad you have gone this far, I expected a few more posts. Don't forget to check this option on his computer as well, otherwise if he receives a new email earlier than you, you won't get it.

One more thing to note: The emails will be kept on the server, so what's the best time to remove them? If this is a temporary task, after you finish it, simply remove his email account from your Outlook, uncheck the 'keep copy on server' option on his computer; if this is a ongoing task, you need to figure out a way removing these accumulated emails on the server, one way to do is checking the option 'Remove from server after x days'.

It's a temporary task - once we receive replies from everybody we should be all done, so I'll make sure to uncheck the option. Still, it doesn't seem like it would hurt to use the "remove after xx days" either seeing as how we should both receive the e-mails within minutes of them being sent (it can't hurt to be safe for things like weekends though).

Thanks again for the help. Personally, I think it's goofy how people won't respond to an e-mail if I write it (I'm new to the company) but if they see my manager's name they'll take the time to write back. Welcome to corporate America
