Help w/Windows Mail - All my inbox e-mails from Verizon are gone .

[Stovall13051305]

They are all in Windows Mail, but deleted from my original e-mail acount
verizon.net How do I restore them as I can't access windows mail at work? I
wanted to add 'outlook express' like I had with my comcast e-mail account - I
had both e-mail accounts. This new windows mail just cut all my inbox
e-mails and pasted them in its account. ANy help would be greatly
appreciated.

It's not clear what happened, or what you want.

Windows Mail can access multiple email accounts, but it puts all incoming
email into one Inbox.
You can create message rules to move email from each account into different
folders
or
You could purchase WMIDs, which adds the identities feature that OE had

or
You can switch to the newer Windows Live Mail, which has separate Inboxes,
etc. for each email account.

By default, Windows Mail deletes the messages from the server after
downloading them. If you wish to access your email from more than one
computer, you can change the settings on each email program on each computer
to leave the messages on the server after downloading.
Tools - Accounts - youraccount - Properties - Advanced
[x] Leave a copy of messages on server
[x] Remove from server after [xx] days

Do this for all accounts on both computers, although you only need to set
one computer to remove after [xx] days, to keep the server inbox from
filling up.
