i'm thinking about trying out push e-mail with mail2web.com's free hosted exchange service

right now, i use google's domain apps for hosting e-mail through gmail, and i use outlook 2003 locally to keep everything on my laptop/desktop straight

now when i throw this pocketpc (6700) into the mix, things get kind of crazy

i want to keep my outlook mail on the ppc because i like having an archive of my sent mail handy in case someone didn't receive something and i have to send it again (technically it would all be on gmail as well since i send through there, but it's nice having it locally on the miniSD card rather than using the web interface for gmail). but if i sync mail with an exchange server for the push e-mail, it won't let me keep any other mail sources.

any exchange experts know a way around?

edit:
oh and i just tried accessing mail2web through outlook to copy my sent mail over to the exchange server but it doesn't work. only the cell phone can access it. i may just have to deal with pull e-mail.

so by using your ppc with an exchange, it wont let you have other email accounts come down to it? i.e. POP/IMAP?

it will have as many accounts come down to the actual ppc, but activesync can only sync with one e-mail source so it's either my local outlook PST file or the exchange server

i understand why it can't "sync" with more than one source but i just want to see my sent items from the local outlook PST file and still have the push e-mail advantage of the exchange server
