I want my e-mail to appear in Outlook and Outlook Express inbox(s

[lady of leisure]

I like to use both Outlook and Outlook Express for receiving and sending
e-mails. I was using an internet provider (CompuServe) for six years but we
cancelled with them and went with our local phone company. Before cancelling
CompuServe, I could indeed use all three mail servers. Now, I only have
Outlook and Outlook Express but my incoming mail mostly arrives in the O.E.
inbox. Question: Which one of these should be my default, or does this not
matter?

Doesn't matter but you must configure your account to leave a copy on the
server.

Roady: I found the box that needed to be checked for leaving a copy on the
server. I will now wait for another e-mail to arrive and see if that e-mail
is both in the Outlook and O.E. inbox(s). Crossing my fingers and I'll get
back to you.

Send yourself some testmails; saves the waiting ;-)

DUH!! Why didn't I think of that? Yes, it works. I've been working on this
for one week now and you supplied me with the answer. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
