Then being new to this, my question would be, how do I leave a copy on the
server? I assumed if Netscape is not open (so does not download messages
until I open it) that the messages should go to Outlook. And that would not
answer the question as to why some go through and some don't, would it?
Thanks for your help on this because it is really frustrating me!! This is my
business email and I can't risk missing important emails.

I am currently trying to change from Netscape Mail (which I have loved using

my default email but also check Netscape for incoming mail, to make sure
Outlook is receiving properly. Well, it isn't. I find important emails that
come into my Netscape box (which I have changed so it is no longer my
default) that never arrive in my Outlook box. This makes me fearful of
changing over completely, as I believe I will be missing emails. Am I doing
something wrong? Thank you.

You're probably not leaving a copy on the server for Outlook to pick up
when Netscape's already downloaded it. Can't advise on Netscape (don't
use it) but that's a common scenario.
