You can adjust Outlook to leave mail on server to let other people at other PC-s to download the same mail. And Outlook "wisely knows" which mail was downloaded and it downloads only once each mail. However, if you transfer only .pst and other config files to another PC, each mail will be downloaded again, resulting duplicates. Where does outlook store this relevant information? And how could it be synchronized?

Haven't found it able to sync that one up yet. However, the option under leave mail on server, that gives you the option to delete when it is put in deleted items should help to eliminate some of that duplication.

Hi, Tar12. That is correct with option to delete, however I do not want to delete them only not getting as duplicate. Anyway I think there is no solution on user level (MS forgot this to solve) only some very tricky way on registry level, but I am afraid I am not able to solve and find it.
