Backup IMAP email to local computer using Outlook 2007

Hmmm.

So back in the day I use to have POP3 which automatically downloads the email from the email server and deletes it on the server leaving only your local copy. Well unfortunately for me the school toasted the POP3 server so I only have IMAP. The problem is my webmail is crappy and now I am running out of space on the server. Here are some quick instructions to back everything up to a local machine with outlook 2007. Also make sure to back up this file!

1. Right Click on your "Personal Folders"
2. Select "New Folder..."
3. Enter the name and leave "Folder Contains" "Mail and Post Items"
4. Now Select the mail in the IMAP email folder (Ctrl-A) or any way you please, "Move to Folder" and select that new folder you made!

Hey Guys!

I just wanted to show off my Asari I just made. As you know I have been addicted to the mass effect multiplayer. I have been putting together miniatures to do mass effect themed skirmish battles. Here is what I have for now! Please forgive the camera glare and such, I took it from my Lg-Quantum phone on top of a coffee cup. /sigh

HP Wireless Keyboard No longer Recognized by Touchpad

Hey guys,

So I had a problem where my touchpad no longer recognized my bluetooth keyboard. Here is how to fix it. Essentially you have to re-pair the keyboard.

1. Turn the keyboard off, that is the button is to the left if the keyboard is facing down

2. Go to the bluetooth settings

3. Go to + Add device and select keyboard

4. NOW switch the power on, that is the switch should be to the right if the keyboard is down

5. It will find it again, click pair
