Default Sending copies of all messages to the Inbox

Is this possible in OE? It would be for a person who has two computers, and
wants copies of all e-mails sent from one computer to be delivered to the
other computer as well. She was able to do this with an Apple computer but
can't find the way to do it with OE.

And what about in the new Windows Mail that comes with Vista?

By the way, why did Microsoft change the name from the familiar Outlook
Express to Windows Mail?

Send them where? To another address? Another folder? Click on any message
header and then Ctrl+A will highlight them all. Then you can Right Click and
make your choice of what you want to do.

Windows Mail looks, and essentially acts, like Outlook Express, but many
improvements were made. The most important was the elimination of the
fragile dbx file system. For more on WinMail, post to the new newsgroup for
that purpose.

You can just swap the files that contain the messages back and forth. See
www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#imp1 to import individual dbx files.
Alternatively, my OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/) will let you point to a
dbx file on one machine and import it into the message store on the other.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. Let's say you're at your laptop. You are
sending an e-mail to someone, but you also want to get a copy of that sent
message going to your desktop. This would be the equivalent of putting your
own e-mail address in the CC folder or BCC folder of every e-mail you send.
The e-mail goes to your mailbox at your ISP. Then when you go to your
desktop and receive your e-mail, you get a copy of the e-mail sent from your
laptop.

The only way to do that would be to do it as you describe. There's no
automated way, and there is no option to always CC or BCC a reply or a new
message.

Here is a dangerous and tricky way.

Default Sending copies of all messages to the Inbox

This would not work for a reply or forward, but open a new message window
and put your own address in the BCC field. File | Save As and save it as an
eml file to your Desktop. You can drag the icon onto the Quick Launch
Taskbar. When you want to send a new message, click on this icon to open a
new message window instead of Create mail and your own address is already
there.
