This assumes that the user isn't using the archiving feature. If they are, these messages will *only* reside in 'All Mail'.

I think you're both overwhelmingly paranoid and a bit naive not to trust 3rd party providers. What would they gain by copying your emails? Also, don't you think that would be very stupid from a...

Yes, that certainly makes sense. It is just a bit more difficult to setup as it includes both SMTP and POP3 or IMAP and ideally two different systems to ensure external deliveries work.

I can't say I have a lot of experience of working with Exchange, but one tool that works great for any email solution is Pingdom. Just configure it to check both the IMAP and SMTP server. You can...

Sure, but that's the point. I talk to a lot of people who are really confused about that topic.
I don't think it is intended for die-hard sysadmins who set up email systems every day.

I would definitely recommend Google Apps over Office365. Microsoft can't really get their act together. Look at all the users who went for BPOS. It's now deprecated and MS won't migrate them to...

Yeah, dragging and dropping works great for small mailboxes. If you got larger mailboxes, check out YippieMove (http://www.yippiemove.com).

Yes, you can always start by throwing out Outlook in favor of something more sane, like Thunderbird. :)

That aside, it's hard to tell without further information. Assuming you have your account set...

If you have SSH-access to your web hosting service, you can always slap up a cron-job that runs 'imapsync' every hour or so.

Yeah, i'd say that sounds like a pretty lousy deal for the money. I'd rather go with Google Apps Standard (free) or Rackspace (~$9/yr). They both offer a whole lot more than just POP3 and are likely...

If the goal is only to protect the locally stored email, FDE is a bit overkill.

Yeah, just get a domain (<$10) and set up Google Apps Standard on it ($0). There you go, you now have a non-gmail email address for <$10 per year (just the cost of the domain).
