So I sent a message to myself on the Toshiba. It appeared in duplicate on the
Dell. Two other incoming messages appeared in duplicate on the Dell. When I
opened the Toshiba, I received the original message I had sent to myself and
only 1 copy of the two other messages received in duplicate on the Dell. I
have 2 e-mail addresses on the Dell, one being the default. Could this be
causing the problem? The Toshiba sports only the 1 address.
:
Did you only get dupes on the one machine? If so, it may just be going
through a correction.

You were right. I had only 1 machine with "Leave a copy" checked. But
when I
corrected this on the Dell, the first incoming e-mail showed up in
duplicate
(same e-mail one after the other).
:
Sent messages will only show on the machine it was sent from.
For incoming, I believe only one machine has "Leave a copy" checked.
If both computers are using the same e-mail address, on both machines:
Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: Leave a copy
of
messages on the server.
On one machine only, check to Delete messages after X days to satisfy
your
allotted space you get from your server.

I have a Dell desktop and a Toshiba wireless laptop both running Vista
and
when I check Windows Mail, the same message does not always appear on
both
computers. For instance, if I check the Toshiba, open an e-mail, that
same
e-mail will not show up on the Dell so I have to send it to myself,
shut
down
the Toshiba and open it up on the Dell. Or if I reply to an e-mail on
the
Toshiba, it will not show up on the Dell under "Sent". ???
