I have a couple of questions and wondered if anyone could help me out
please.

1, I have a machine at home and 2 machines at work, both using outlook
express 6 one using windows xp and the other using windows 2000. The problem
I am getting is that the box under advanced in outlook express which says
leave on the server for XXX days keeps getting unchecked, which means if I
read my emails at home or on one of the machines at work, I cannot read the
emails on the main machine at work..

I find I am ticking this box every day and something keeps on unticking
it...?


2, I have a couple of email accounts and on one of them have a signature
for, I was wondering if outlook express allows different signatures for
different email accounts?

I hope someone can help me.

Thanks for your time.

Regards,

Mark Jordan

Hi the none retention of the setting, if it only happens on one machine,
could indicate a corrupt account, remove after noting all your settings, and
reinstall it. , but if it is on them all? Then are you completing the
process correctly by Apply then OK?

A sig' can be set as default for each account, use the 'advanced' button
after selecting the sig' then check the relevant accounts to apply it to.

Hi Mac, thanks for getting back to me. After spending 1 hour I have tried
these,

1, yes I am clicking the apply, but it still does not work.

2, I have tried this also but I find when I go to create mail and select the
account I wish to use in the drop down menu, the signature does not change.
I am using html signatures but I suppose this does not make any difference,
can you give me any info on what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.
Mark

The identity in use may be corrupted in the registry. Try creating a
new identity, switch to it and set up the mail account in it and test
it. If all works well, you can import your mail messages from the old,
problem identity and then delete the older identity. This is most
likely the case if you are still using the "Main Identity" created when
Outlook Express is first set up since it appears to be quite prone to
corruption.

2) The problem with the signature is that OE isn't smart enough to
change the signature when change the FROM selection. As a workaround,
in signatures uncheck the option to automatically add signatures. Then
after selecting the correct From address, use the Insert, Signature menu
item.

Create a new Identity and see if that fixes the problem.
If yes, then import the mail from the old Identity.

Hi again guys, i can confirm, that i have created a new identity, and still
have the same problem (on one of my machines - as far as i am aware) as
below ..

Anyone have any ideas on what it could be now, or how to resolve it? could
it be anything to do with my ISP or is this impossible?

Thanks once again.

Mark

Are you scanning your email with an antivirus program?
