I recently setup my IMAP email account on Windows Mail so I could view
emails from my Vista OS. Unfortunately, once I view an email using Windows
Mail, I can no longer view it on my XP Home OS's Outlook 2000. I checked
the same mail using a web mail interface, and the email content is still
viewable, so I know its still on the server. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

Jeremy W. Metzler,
In the Outlook 2000 PC, select the IMAP email folders one at a time> Change
the VIEW setting to "Show All Messages".

Is your email account in Outlook 2000 setup as an IMAP account? Some
email providers allow both POP and IMAP access so just want to confirm
that your account is set up as an IMAP account in both email clients.

Found the problem - I was having a problem with my email virus scan sfotware
on the XP OS. All is well - thanks!
