I am accessing my work email using gmail, and I need help satisfying my company's backup requirements. Help?
I am accessing my work email using gmail, and I need help satisfying my company's backup requirements. Help? We use Exchange at work (MS Exchange 2007), and I am on a mac. I don't like Entourage, so I have been accessing my email via POP on a gmail account. I am very happy with this setup.
The problem is that since it's POP, emails that I send from gmail are not synced back to the Exchange server, which means they are not backed up with all the other company emails. If I want to continue using gmail, I have to figure out a way to get my outgoing emails backed up.
Gmail cannot fetch emails via IMAP, only POP, so that's not an option.
I considered OSX Mail, Entourage and Thunderbird, but I find Gmail to be far superior.
The only option I've thought of is this... to have all my outgoing emails automatically bcc'ed to an internal email address, which we would set up just for this purpose. Then all my outgoing emails would be backed up. I haven't been able to figure out how to do this in gmail.
Can anyone help? Please don't make me use Entourage!
