Emails going to wrong computer

[Dede]

We have Vista and Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 on our laptop. We have
Windows 98 and Microsoft Outlook Express 6 on our old desktop. How can I stop
any emails from going to the old computer?

Delete or disable the e-mail account in OE6 on your old desktop. It
won't poll e-mail accounts that aren't defined.

If both computers check the same email account, then you can stop it by
either
- specify to leave a copy of your messages on the server (Outlook Express)
- remove the account from Outlook Express
- don't open Outlook Express any more

Mail doesn't "go to" a mail client. Mail clients pull messages from the
server, then delete them (usually). Don't start Outlook Express on the old PC
and it won't pull the messages from the server, leaving them available for
Outlook to pull when you run it.
