Morning all,
I have a question regarding a POP3 email and 2 outlooks.

I would like to know if it is possible to received email to both outlooks?

I have a blueyonder account - I dont not wish to login to the webmail i only want to use outlook, in the past i managed to set this up but once i receive an email on one outlook, i go to open the other and nothing appears...

Could anyone give me some advice on what i might be doing wrong or is it possible to do this?

Hi Phil,
You have to make some changes in your outlook for your pop e-mail to appear
in both the computers.
Please follow these steps,
>Outlook>Tools>options>e-mail account>view or change e-mail account.
>click on the e-mail account to modify its properties.
>more settings>click on advanced tab
>click on save e-mails in server ( something like that), its the last option.

I hope you are working outlook 2003.

This setting will save a copy of message in your web account server as well,
so even though outlook downloads e-mails in one computer, it still saves the
e-mail in the web mail, so when you view the e-mail in any other computer,
outlook will again download the e-mails.

Many thanks for your reply.

I just found out my ISP supports IMAP - would this be better?

Say if one client is using POP3 and the other is using IMAP - could I have issues with this?

Thanks

Perhaps. I find Outlook's IMAP transport to be less than robust, but it
should work.

Not if the POP account is configured to leave messages on the server so they
are there for the IMAP account to read.

IMAP is exactly what you want. On all accounts, of course.
