How do I keep email on server?

When using Outlook or Outlook Express to read your email, you may have noticed that if you try to read mail on another computer, you will not see those emails that you have previously saw in Outlook Express. The reason is because when you click on Send/Receive, Outlook Express downloads your email to your computer, and removes it from the mail server. You will not see those emails in your web mail either.

If you have the need to see your mail on multiple computers or want to access your email at your webmail, you can save a copy on the server. Here is how you set your Outlook:

1. Click on TOOLS.
2. Click on ACCOUNTS.
3. Click on the MAILtab.
4. Click on PROPERTIES
5. Click on the ADVANCED tab.
6. On the very bottom is a section called DELIVERY.
7. Check the box next to “Leave a copy of messages on server”.
8. Check the box next to “Remove from the server after X days”. The default is 5 days. We suggest you leave it at that.
9. You can also check the box next to “Remove from server when deleted from ‘Deleted Items’”.
10. Click Apply.
11. Click OK.
12. Click CLOSE.
