If there were such a mirror mailbox system ("if he deletes something from
here it is magically gone from there"), I think it would partially defeat
the purpose of having it. One day he will delete and purge something from
the master mailbox by mistake and will be pissed off because the stuff is
also gone from the replica.

Tell them to do some real work and stop pulling ideas out of their butts.

Subject: Duplicating mailboxes


Basically we've got the biggest tit of a Managing Director this side of the
millennium, who's really making life hard, but hey that's life right? ;p

What he wants is to have a backup mailbox on our main server as well as the
server that he is normally located on, so some other members of my
outstanding IT department suggested we have another mailbox with the
incoming mails directed to a backup email box, I'd like to take this
opportunity to thank all my colleagues for this highly adaptive use of
initiative.

So I'm landed now to use this ridiculous idea, which from my forecasting
means that his backup mailbox will just fill and fill and the Director is
not going to maintain it, I'm certainly not going to (I wouldn't know what
to delete!), so thanks to my colleagues I'm landing with a catch 22.

Is there anyway to replicate mailboxes somehow as to have redundancy so that
if one server should fail he can work from a copy on another server?  This
should reflect changes to his current mailbox, i.e. if he deletes from there
it also deletes from the backup mailbox.
