This will tell the server\u00a0to download all E-mail messages to your computer but only leave a copy of the messages on the web server for a certain number of days. This is the most common setting for people who want to read their messages at work but also download them for permanent storage on their home computer. We recommend that you choose the smallest number of days that suits your needs. The longer you leave messages on your e-mail server, the greater the risk of filling-up your web server storage and exceeding your mailbox size quota.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"qc-kb-step\"><span class=\"qc-kb-num\" aria-hidden=\"true\">7<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Step 7: <\/span>Click <strong>OK<\/strong>, and then click <strong>Finish<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/quikclicks.quik17.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Outlook-RemoveCopyFromServer01.jpg\" alt=\"ms outlook 5\" width=\"342\" height=\"409\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3928\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/quikclicks.quik17.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Outlook-RemoveCopyFromServer01.jpg 342w, https:\/\/quikclicks.quik17.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/Outlook-RemoveCopyFromServer01-251x300.jpg 251w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 342px) 100vw, 342px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This tutorial shows you how to set up Microsoft Outlook 2003 to work with your e-mail account.
