Default emails from another account

Thank you. In my desperation to get back my mails, i went to trueswitch.com
and entered my information to enable my mails to be copied out of outlook
express and back into my msn account. That is, i entered my username and
password for my comcast.net account (remember comcast is my internet
provider) and username and password for my msn.com account.

I got a confirmation email (in my msn inbox) from trueswitch informing me
that my requested mails have been copied and will be back into my msn inbox
within 24 hours. I looked into my msn account and saw a folder titled
'comcast folder' but i have yet to see the mails back.

I then went back to outlook express but it (outlook express) required me to
set it up anew. In essence, i did not see my added msn account anymore in
outlook express and unable to do as you have advised.

I am frustrated. Can you still help please? Thank you.

If you setup the HTTP one then they will be there. If you used pop.live.com
| smtp.live.com then you will need to send them to yourself again

In TOOLS | ACCOUNTS

Double-click the account in question| Advanced tab & check the box to leave
a copy of the message on the server...

I set up my outlook express account (comcast is my internet provider)
today.
I also added my msn email account to outlook express.

Very surprisingly, outlook started and received/retrieved all the mails in
my msn inbox. That was not what i intended.

I need those mails sent back to my msn inbox. How can i achieve this,
please?

Thank you.

Are the messages still in your inbox at www.hotmail.com?

Did you set up the account for POP3 access? (If your OE looks
like this, it's NOT POP3 access:

Assuming POP3, open OE Tools | Accounts | Email | [msn account] | Properties
| Advanced tab:

"Leave messages on the server" - should be checked if you want to be able to
access your messages in your webmail inbox.

"Delete messages when deleted from Deleted Items" - checking this is
optional

"Delete messages after XX days" - optional
