Sorry if this is in wrong forum.

Haveing a problem with my Outlook 2000. Got it installed
on both my laptop and desktop pc. What i want to know is,
can i access both from either pc.
i.e - Can i write emails on my laptop, connect them
together and transfer them to my desktop pc ?

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks in advance.
 
What kind of email do you have?
If you are using POP3 (most ISP's) than no, it would not work that way. You
could recieve mail, but the mail would then stay on that computer. If you
are using a mail system that keeps the messages on the server, such as
Exchange, then yes it would work the way you described.

Acutally, you can set Outlook to leave messages on the Server, even if
it uses POP3. Then you could access the messages from either
computer. Default setup is to delete the messages from the POP3
server after download.
