[Closed] IT help: emails on my phone and SMS in my Outlook, issues

Just started a new job and have setup my phone's (Samsung S3 mini on Adroid 4.something) inbox to work with the new company's Outlook exchange server. Never used it for email before, only through the yahoo app.
Anyway, one of the "advantages" of Outlook exchange seems to be that aswell as emails coming to my phone, my SMS messages also go to my phone's inbox (aswell as its messaging app) and the also appear on my Outlook inbox on the PC. Which I don't want.
Any idea how to stop Outlook receiving my SMS messages?

[i]
On the phone, go into the email app

Push the menu soft key.
Select "settings".
Select your email address. DO NOT tap "General preferences", tap your actual email address.
Scroll to the bottom and uncheck Sync SMS
OR:

Go to Settings
Select "Microsof Exchange ActiveSync" in Accounts group
Select the "Settings" under Common settings group
Select your email address. Do NOT tap "General preferences", tap your actual email address.
Scroll down to the last choice: "Sync SMS", under Server settings group and uncheck it [/i]
