Setting Up Emails
Good morning everyone.
Well done Chris and everyone who contributed to my post. Having carried out your instructions i now get emails to both the Desktop PC and the laptop from the two Tiscali emails configured to" leave a copy of the message on the server" (5 days) on both computers. Not only that but my good lady can forward any other messages she thinks i would want to see from the Tiscali 3rd Accounnt from the Desktop PC upstairs direct to my laptop, downstairs; brilliant
If i leave the deletion period to 5-7 days will these emails be deleted automatically from my Inbox unless i place them in a folder?
We would very much like to be rid of the Tiscali 3rd Account but Tiscali will not allow us to cancel it! It's the very first account set up when we were very new to computers and now carries a great deal of spam ( approx 30 a day) which although i confine to my "Junk Box" is still something we would rather not have coming into the PC. Unfortunately it was our main account and we do receive good as well as bad emails but now i have the laptop i will have the time to gradually close down the usefulness of this email account and hopefully be able to delete it from our accounts list; but will this stop the emails coming into the PC? Any other ideas would be most welcome?
One other point: Is there an email "Alert" system available to inform me of when answers to my postings have arrived ?
The message i received from clicking onto your link is:
Which gateway
You are currently connected to the "Telehouse North, Juniper 6" gateway. This gateway is sometimes known as thn-ag1.
Once again thank you everyone for your time and patience on our behalf, you are to be congratulated for a extremely efficient, friendly and very helpful forum.
Kind regards,
Ernest
