2 Computers accessing 1 Email account
More and more families have 2 computers. Sometimes these computers share a single email address. The problem arises when someone accesses the email from one computer, and then later when using the other computer the email is gone. If you are using Outlook Express for your email (not AOL) then the solution is easy. You want to leave the original email on your ISP's mailserver and only download a copy to each (or both) computers. To accomplish this you must only change one setting on each computer. So, do this on BOTH (or all, if more than 2) computers: 1)Open Outlook Express
2)On the top - click on "Tools" then "Accounts"
3)Double click on the name of your email account that you want to share.
4)On the next small window that opens click on the "Advanced" tab.
5)Place a check in the box labeled "Leave a copy of messages on server"
6)You may also want to check the box "Remove from server when deleted from 'Deleted Items' to keep from going over your mailbox size limit.
7)Click OK then Close and you're done! Now both of your computers will have access to all of the email coming to that address.
