Hotmail account - can it work in outlook on two differerent pcs

[Jolyn]

I have my hotmail account configured to work in outlook on one laptop. Bought
a new laptop and trying to get that configured as well. Cannot get new mail
to come to the new pc, only the old one. Is there a way to configure it to
use outlook on both pcs?

Which version of Outlook are you using?
Are you using the Outlook Connector?
You can download it here;

I am using Outlook 2003 and am using the connector on both.. My new laptop
lets me send messages from the new laptop but any recieved messsages are only
seen on the old laptop.; I suspect it may be because message delivery option
says to a .pst file on the c drive of my old laptop-not a network or anything
and it can only go one place. Does that sound logical to you?

Not logical for an Outlook Connector account because all items stay on the
server for that account type and can be seen on any PC accessing that account
with the connector. Moreover, the local copy is in an OST, not a PST file.
The old laptop must be using a different type of account if its delivering to
a PST.
