As I said before, I originally had Outlook installed on the computer. For
several reasons, I decided to uninstall it, but then changed my mind. Now
I'm only getting some of the new e-mails. When I check in OE, I find othere
e-mails that didn't show up on Outlook. Yes, this is with Outlook set as the
default mail recipient. What is not showing up IS "legitimate" e-mail, not
from blocked senders.

Brian Tillman has sugggested that I configure OE to leave messages on the
server so that they don't download from the server. If I open Outlook first,
it should still have the messages on the server. When I look, there is
usually no message, or maybe one. If I go to OE afterwards, I find messages
there in the inbox.
To take Brian's suggetion, do I do that by unchecking the box that says
"Automatically download message when
displayed in preview pane"? If it's something else, I don't see any other
options. Thanks

Don't make new threads for old problems. COntinue the discussion in the
same thread where you asked the original question.

In OE, Click Tools>Accounts. Locate the email account, select it, and click
Properties. Click the Advanced tab. Put a check in the "Leave a copy of
messages on the server" box.
