Problem with Receiving Windows Mail in One User Area

R

Ralph Penner

I have two computers. One is routed to the other. In my first computer,
there are two users. I am the Administrator. In the second computer, there
are three users, the same two names as on my first computer, a third named
as the Administrator.

On my second, routed computer, in only one User, when I click on Send and
Receive, up comes a box asking me to connect using a Dial-Up Connection. I
don't use a dial-up connection on these computers; I have a wireless
connection.

I've checked the properties of my wireless connection, and there seems to be
no problem.

What steps can I take to stop this Dial-Up Connection box from popping up so
I can send and receive my Windows Mail on my second computer?

Chances are, that account is corrupted. Delete it. Restart Windows Mail,
then recreate that account.

'Tools|Options|Connection', make sure "Hang up after sending and receiving"
is not checked; 'Tools|Accounts|Mail|Properties|Connection', make sure
"Always connect to this account using" is not checked.
