not receiving email from old pc

[Trish]

Hi, I went from a desktop to laptop and xferred all processes over to the
laptop (or so i thought). Just noticed that I'm only receiving emails on
the laptop from those that I sent thru the laptop, and all other emails are
still going to my desktop (outlook 2003) .... I'm also still trying to
import contacts and folders, etc to word mail, no luck either. I even tried
to xfer outlook 2003 through a transfer cable..but didn't work.
1) do I need disconnect mail from going to desktop? if so , how?
2) should I wait to disconnect until 'I have contacts and folder xferred to
laptop?


Any advice would be appreciated....
Thanks

All you have to do is set up the other accounts in Windows Mail (Tools |
Accounts)
Use the information from Outlook 2003 accounts to put in to the WinMail
accounts. (Control Panel | Mail Accounts I believe it is).

As long as you don't check the e-mail on the desktop computer, you will get
the e-mail on the laptop instead once you set up the accounts.

I'd even go as far and say install Outlook 2003 on the laptop, copy the pst
file for it, set up the accounts and use it. You will have to uninstall it
from the Desktop.
