I have multiple email accounts, with different organizations, on different servers. I presently manage them as POP3 accounts with Outlook 2010 (Windows) - but switching between machines is becoming a problem for me. This suggests switching to IMAP. The problem is that I have a many-to-many relationship between email account and project. My Outlook folder structure is project-based. (I use one Outlook file for all accounts.)
If I switch to IMAP, the top-level of my (logical) folder tree will be account based, correct? This is not so good. The only work-around I can think of is to set up another IMAP account (maybe gmail), push my Outlook folder structure onto it, and use that as a repository, dragging emails from other IMAP accounts onto it as required. I think this will work...
Any other suggestions?
