Vista Windows Mail/Network/Outlook Express

    I bought a new Dell and have it networked to my older PC. The new one has Vista w/Windows Mail, the old one has XP Pro w/ Outlook Express.
    My problem is some of my email only goes to the Outlook Express and some goes to Windows Mail.
    Example: I received an email (from my cousin)that I can see on the new PC but not the old one. I replied to the message on my new PC. Then I was on the old PC and discovered my cousin replied back to me. I couldn't see his reply on my new PC.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks
    Doug

    Hi

    Yes, open your Mail applications up then go to Tools > Accounts, click the email account and choose Properties > then click Advanced tab and put tick in "Leave a copy of messages on server" > Apply

    Do this on both PCs and all email accounts and you will get a mirror copy of emails on both PCs, this is how I keep my 3 PCs upto date with emails and newsgroup messages.
