How do I check my email when I'm on the road without my computer?

[Guest]

I'll be traveling and using my sister's computer. How do I check my email.
I have Microsoft Outlook at home. My address is at comcast.net. I don't
know if she has Outlook or not.

You will have to use Web Access if Comcast has such a thing. Check their
support web site.

Thanks so much for answering. They have webmail. Is that the same thing?
When I check my email address it says I have no messages. Do I have to get
into Outlook somehow on the comcast webmail.

You are probably downloading messages from the server to your home computer
in outlook, so on webmail you would only see new messages.

I use Comcast too. You won't need Outlook on your sister's PC. Just go
to www.comcast.net, click on the small mail icon and sign into your
account. As long as you haven't left Outlook running on your home PC you
should be able to retrieve your new messages. Also, if Outlook happens
to be running on your home PC, you may not see new messages if you did
not configure Outlook to leave a copy of the message on the server.
