@Dashrender lol sorry kind of spoke without researching on that point.

@JasGOt Hi Thanks for the reply and your recommendations, sorry for the delayed response. Had to research more on 'our requirements' vs what 'we think we need' rather 'what we do need' As you were knew from the Post i am new to this.

About G Suite Sync for Microsoft Outlook 4.0.16.0 we have here.
Setting the mailbox size to 1GB and getting them to use Gmail for older emails. Than will raise it according depending on user needs. This has fix most Outlook Syncing from Gsuite issues here.

The below KB help to clearing identify what wont sync..

https://support.google.com/a/answer/6209363

This statement from the vendor was surprising 'We are strongly advice to use the web interface and not 3rd party apps to connect to our mail services.'

Just sharing on what i found and fix here. Thank again.

This is a Legal Firm, with currently 40 networked users -> 70 users future up scale.

Now everything is on Gsuite, sync between Gmail and Outlook is a nightmare. So we going to have a Local Domain as Mail Server.

I am in midst doing a server proposal.

We need AD and share point = Server A, Server B File Server (Heavy usage due to Documents and archives) (File Share back up to Cloud) Which cloud service should I Use? Web Hosting and one to for Client Database Management. Server C (Can the web hosting and Client database management system be on one Server?)

I am leaning to Floor Standing Server Rack (foresee future need to add storage), Intel Xeon processors,

File Server OS will be Windows Server.

Server Brand, Family Model and Server OS (security has to be top notch no opensource please )?

Any help will be appreciated
