OK, to answer your question as to why I have both the Gmail and the mail2web Exchange server... Well there are several reasons:

1) I want true "push" email. Even setting Pocket Outlook to check every 1-minute is not true push.

2) I like the idea of having my contacts on the exchange server. I always have a continuous and live running address book. That's a great backup.

3) But I really like Gmail. It's wayyyy faster than the MS Exchange with Outlook. When I do a search on Gmail or pull up an email, its almost instantaneous. Gmail also gives me a lot more storage space (for free too) thatn mail2web.

The reason that I am not using the standard Pocket Outlook with my Gmail and having it check every 1-minute, is because of all the issues with dissappearing email. I also get an incoming email anytime that I send something from Gmail. I get that same email that I sent. but as an incoming email.

So there you have it.
