mumble_bee Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 you can set it not to delete the mails after downloading from the server, so you'll still have webmail access. Its an interesting and powerful mail client, its mostly intuitive. (I only use it for work.. its a lumbering oaf for personal use, imo) Quote
mumof4 Posted April 13, 2007 Author Report Posted April 13, 2007 crumbs..how do i do that?..... Quote
malcolm.dobell Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 Dear mumof4 from dadof4! (to all others - no other connection!!!) If your PDA is new, then when you installed the drivers and so on you've installed OUTLOOK which is a grown up version of Outlook Express; it's great when you get 100 emails a day - as I do at work. At home I use Outlook Express. Do you normally use Outlok express or just leave the Email on the server at Tiscali? If you use an Email programme on your computer, look at this: http://email.about.com/cs/outlooktips/qt/et100701.htm. This tells you how to set your computer to use outlook. However, If you follow the instructions, but where it tells you to select Outlook, you select the programme you use, that should get you back to where you were. However some emails will still be in Outlook. If you want to retreive those, I'm not sure how to do it, but I'm sure some other kind soul will tell you. Do you want to import email into your PDA? - if you do then you're stuck with Outlook and I sugest you explore the 'net for tutorials or even buy "outlook for dummies" or some such computer book.
