e-mails do not go to default account

WLM 14 v. Vista Home Premium SP 1. Avast free edition.
I have 2 accounts : cogeco.ca ( default account ), and live.ca
I UN-checked " Leave a copy of messages to server " on BOTH accounts.
Lately, e-mails arrived at the live.ca account instead of my default account
although I was working on the default account.
Any idea ? Is my default account compromised ?

Re: e-mails do not go to default account

Email should go to the account that received the email. Being the default
account has nothing to do with which account gets the email.

Re: e-mails do not go to default account

Sorry, I did not make myself clear.
The e-mail was sent to my default account.
In fact, I sent it myself in order to know for sure if I had problem.

Re: e-mails do not go to default account

I'm still not clear what your problem is..
Can you elaborate what you have and what you did in sequential steps and include any relevant information(o/s, WLM version,
pop3/http accounts, etc)

Re: e-mails do not go to default account

Vista Home Premium SP1, WLM 14v.
I have 2 accounts : cogeco.ca as my default . live.ca is the other.
( A. ) UN-check " leave a copy of messages on server " on BOTH accounts -
ALL e-mails went to live.ca account, regardless of the e-mail addresses.
( B.. ) The only way my default account can receive e-mails is to have
Either or Both accounts " leave copy ".
Both accounts have the same in-coming and out-going server.
Did I make myself clearer this time ?

Re: e-mails do not go to default account

Correction :
( B ) The only way my default account can receive e-mails is to have either
the live.ca and/or both accounts " leave a copy ". Meaning if I " leave a
copy " on my default but not on live.ca, all e-mails go to live.ca.
I don't blame you if you are confused. It's hard to explain. Ask me
questions, may be that will help.
