I have two computers networked via an Ethernet cable. They share an
internet connection because the main PC is connected to a broadband modem (not a router). Is there a way both the computers can share the OE Inbox At the moment whichever computer opens OE gets the emails that are waiting to be downloaded. TIA B.W. |

You can have all users/PCs download all message from a POP3 mail server
by selecting Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Advanced, Leave a copy of messages on the server in all users/PCs. One or more of the users/PCs should be set to delete messages from the server after a few days or else the server mail account will eventually fill. However, Sent messages will only be saved on the sending user/PC. If your ISP offers IMAP mail server access, that is the way to go. IMAP is designed for a single mail account to be shared by multiple PCs. The IMAP mail is managed at the mail server. If your ISP doesn't provide IMAP support, an option is to run your own local mail server that accesses the ISP via POP3 and then provides IMAP support to your local PCs. For an example of such a program, see: Mercury Mail Transport System http://www.pmail.com/overviews/ovw_mercury.htm -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "B.W." wrote in message ...
