Default how do i download a copy of e-mails to 2 seperate computers o/expr

Hi,

I have adjusted the mail setting to leave a copy of the e-mail on the remote
server, but it works on one pc and not on my other one??, both are running
the same copy of outlook express and both have Win XP, ie my wife's computer
'A' will download a copy of an e-mail message that has already displayed on
my computer 'B' but if she gets the message first then it will not download
on mine, has anyone ANY ideas?

If both computers are using the same e-mail address, on both machines:

Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Advanced - Check: Leave a copy of
messages on the server.

On one machine, check to Delete messages after X days to assure the server
does not get clogged up.
