Sometimes correct, but you couldn't prove it by me. I've done that
scores of times and have never had a problem.

Then you've been extremely lucky.....

Might be. That's how I used to keep my desktop and my notebook
synched. I haven't tried it since I switched to Outlook 2007 on the
desktop.

Now when I use the notebook for mail, I have it configured to leave
messages on the server. The desktop deletes from the server when it
collects mail.
