Outlook on 2 PC's

[will_usher]

I'm having a few problems with using Outlook on 2 PC's. I want to be
able to receive all my emails on both PC's. At the moment if I open
Outlook on one PC it receives emails, but then if open Outlook on the
other PC those emails are not in the inbox... it will only receive
emails that are currently being sent through.

I think there is a setting that allows the user to store emails on the
server. Could someone please let me know of the setting that I need to
change as I can't find it.

Thanks.

Mate I cant tell you exactly here but I use News a fair bit so maybe my
comments will help ya.

I run a laptop and a PC in my house and I can get mail and copies of on both
of my outlooks.


The problem i recon is that when you download mail from the server then that
is it downloaded and removes from the server (at the internet provider where
your mail is kept). You have to leave a copy on the server so that when you
log on with your second PC the PC only see's that there is mail to collect -
so it collects it also.

To do this do the following:-
Tools/Options/
Mail set up tab a top
Email Accounts
Choose "View or change existing e-mail accounts - then NEXT
Highlight the name you use in the account field - Click on CHANGE
Click on MORE SETTINGS
Click on ADVANCED tab
Then at the bottom you will see Delivery
put a tick in "Leave a copy on server"
Also put a click in "Remove from server after X days" I usually leave mine
for a couple of weeks sitting on the server.

Anyway hope this helps. I'm sure it will.
