| Re: Connect New Laptop to Desktop E-mail
Set up the same mail account on your laptop. However, if both computers are checking the same email account, whichever one completes its email download first will make those emails unavailable to the second PC. To fix that problem, go to Tools, Accounts, select your mail account, Properties, Advanced, enable "Leave a copy of messages on server." Repeat the above on the second computer. The menu path is the same for Windows Mail and Outlook Express, but is likely to be a little different for Outlook. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Allan" <vector_wood@verizon.net> wrote in message news:e05oQMOVJHA.4092@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Hello, > My desktop computer runs XP and is connected to outlook e-mail.
