Multiple Mail Accounts

[eastfield]

I have a dial up service configured to one computer No.1 with MS Outlook 6.0 for internet and e-mail use. I tried to add an identical account on another computer No.2 with MS Outlook 6.0 that has broadband internet connection. I am able to send e-mails from computer No. 2 that do not appear as sent mail on computer No.1 and I cannot recieve e-mails sent to computer No.1. How can I configure computer no.2 to receive emails sent from computer No.2 and No.1?


Thanks all in advance.

You'll have to CC yourself in oder to get sent mail on both machines.

With my aol account I can send and receive mail from any computer .Why can I not do the same for the computer No.2 on a LAN with broadband ?

With and AOL account your mail (sent and recieved) sits on the internet, meaning you can access the same thing from any computer. In Outlook your mail is downloaded to you computer to recieve it, meaning once its on your computer, you cant get it anywhere else unless you forward it. Same with sent mail. You should try finding a web-based mail site for your account to use if you wish to access it from many sites.

Or if your ISP allows IMAP connections, use that. IMAP stores messages on the server, not the client. Just like webmail and AOL.
