Hello All,

Is it possible to bring my OUTLOOK up on her laptop, if so, how ?

All help so appreciated.

Why would you pollute your "friend's" laptop just so you can read
*possible* e-mails that you receive during only 2 days? Stop being so
unfriendly to your friend. Use the webmail interface to your account
when using someone else's property to read your e-mails.

Best to ask an Outlook newsgroup. Don't forget to state your version of
Outlook.

First you will have to configure your email account into her Outlook.
Then you need to copy your .PST file to portable media like a flash pen.
Then copy it to someplace on her hard drive. Open Outlook and go to
File/Open/Outlook Data File and navigate to where you saved the .PST
file. Now you can use her Outlook. When you're done, close your .PST
file and remove your email account.

Well an interesting response, not quite the response one would expect. No
comment really to Vanguard apart from the image of liverpudlians with curly
wigs on, going 'calm down, calm down' ???? Bizarre response.

And thanks Pegasus a straight forward, normal answer. Hurrah, I Did have a
look for an Outlook newsgroup but couldn't find one on here. Can you point me
in the right direction ? I would be very grateful.

Help appreciated, petty sarcasm, not neccesary.

Many Thanks,

Caroline x

I thought you would trip over the many Outlook newsgroups that exist . . .
News://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.general
News://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.configuration
News://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.contacts

Although there are other ways to access your E-mail, the only way to
do it with Outlook would be to install Outlook on her computer.

I don't know how your friend feels about it, but if you borrowed one
of my computers, or even used it at my house, and installed *anything*
on it, I would have a fit. It would be the last time you would use one
of my computers, and probably even the end of your being my friend.

But doesn't it make you wonder what they do with your email address, once
you've entered it in that little box?

I worked for a client a couple months back, and I met a guy in their
marketing department that found a website that sold email mailing lists. He
was buying one million email addresses, for $39.95 a month. And that was
one MILLION different addresses, each month. And we all know those people
didn't give their addresses out, for the purpose that their being used for -
they were collected, from the internet.
Just a thought.

I'm sorry Caroline, but i would have to agree with Vanguard, you should just
use interent explorer and go right to your web page...hotmail, yahoo, etc.
I am telling you this from experience, i tried to connect outook at home
since i had it at work and it made life so much easier and doing that i ended
up messing up my outlook login, somehow...??
I would HIGHLY recommend that you not try something like that on someone
elses computer, if you want to mess with one, do it to your own!

They use an unsecured wireless network to pipe them up to a black helicopter
hovering above their head office..
