Do you get any error message?
If so select it and copy/paste it here, unedited.

Or:
If you are using both PC's to access your mail, then the first one used will
remove all messages from the BellSouth server.

You can set WM to leave a copy of each message on the server so that you can
get mail to both machines.

Tools>accounts>select account>properties>advanced tab.

Also select and set a sensible number of days to delete messages from the
server, to prevent the server mail box from filling up.

Do the above on both machines, but only set the delete option on one of
them.
