Since I am an avid user of Outlook Express, I do check my mail
everyday, using my OE6, but if I am out of town/home, I use
web-mail, by logging on to the web-mail server. Well, there is a
limit of space (2Gig) and time (100 days) to utilize the web-mail
server, so I have to download and save my e-mails in the Outlook
Express.

Now, here is the problem, as I receive bunch of technical papers,
and I need to look at them while I am out of home, I can only see
web-mails for the limited past.

Question - is there a way to re-load old e-mails from OE6, back to
the server, so that I can view them while I am out of town?

Any comments will be highly appreciated...


It's not clear whether or not you are aware of and using this, so I
might as well mention it:

Tools - Accounts... - Mail - click on relevant account(s) -
Properties - Advanced - tick "Leave a copy of messages on server"
and tick "Remove from server after ... day(s)".

I am familiar with what you have described above. I have "Remove
from server after ... day(s)" set for 100 days, which is probably
maximum number provided by Outlook Express or the server. e-Mails
older than 100 days are automatically deleted from server.

So far I was advised to mail myself each individual e-mails, so that
it ends up in the server, and stay for 100 days, or up to my space
limit, which ever comes first.

Thank you so much..


Just tick: Leave copy on server, don't specify any limit, it'll stay
there for ever, or untill your ISP gets fed up with you.
