    Not receiving Outlook mail with Vista laptop

    Ever since I got my new comuter with Vista (2 weeks) I have not been
    receiving much of my email in Outlook. Mail that I have been told was sent
    and that I received regularly when I had XP no longer arrives. I have added
    the senders to my safe senders list and I have disable both the Windows
    firewall and the McAfee firewall. Any other ideas out there as to what is
    happening?

    Did you setup your mail in Outlook correctly? Do you have outlook allowed
    thru your firewall? Are the email aco****s from Web Providers like GMail
    where you can check the web site for the junk mail section?

    I got lots of other mail and the test mail, I have checked my settings and
    they appear okay - the test Outlook email comes through fine. My firewalls
    are turned off. I have gone in to my local junk mail and my remote junk mail
    and the emails are not there either.

    Do you have another computer that is still downloading the email? If so,
    configure it to leave the messages on the server.
