setting up windows mail from 2 diffrent computers.

[purnrg]

Hello to who ever can help. I have a new computer and so does my wife . We
have one e-mail address at att.net . Is there a way that we can set up
each computer with Windows Mail to retrive messages from the att.net e-mail
account from each one of our computers with out it getting deleted from the
att.net account.
When one computer retrives the mail then the other can not because it is
gone from the att.net account.

Thank you for anyone who can help.

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,
select "Leave a copy of messages on server." Depending on how
much server space your ISP allows, you may want to select one or
both of the two associated 'remove' options.

Repeat the above on the second computer.
