E-Mail Sharing on a adhoc peer to peer network

[Guest]

ive set up a adhoc peer to peer network between a destop pc and a laptop pc.
the desktop has the internet connection on and the laptop and desktop
connect wirelessly together. Ive setup ICS, File and Printer sharing and all
works ok. my qusetion is can i access my email account on my desktop via my
laptop without splitting the emails between the 2 machines ie what is on the
desktop is visible on the laptop and what gets downloaded from my isp email
server say via the laptop would also appear on the desktop. I has outlook &
outlook express. many thank in advance for any guidance

The way to handle this is to set your mail client to leave the messages
on the ISP's mail server. Then the messages will not be deleted after
you download them to whatever machine. You will need to remember to
delete the messages from the server periodically.
