reading and saving email in two accounts

I have mail@charter.net and I just got vista home premium with windows mail and i set my pop3 so i could transfer my mail over to windows mail I got my messages but they are no longer in my charter box and I want the messages to be in both places? (windows and charter) when I recieve new mail to my mailbox. Also I had my wife use the windows mail to mail me at a different mail box at work and a failure notice showed up in my charter box, cause i remotely checked my charter mail.?

Re: reading and saving email in two accounts

POP3 email is not designed for access from multiple places (IMAP is). By
default, it is deleted from the server after downloading.
You can set your email program to leave the messages on the server after
downloading, but they need to be deleted eventually, when the server inbox
fills up.

In Windows Mail
Tools - Accounts - youraccount - Properties - Advanced
[x] Leave a copy of messages on server
[x] Remove from server after [xx] days

You only need to set one computer to remove after [xx] days.

Re: reading and saving email in two accounts

I also have another question i couldnt send an email.This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Each of the following recipients was rejected by a remote mail server.
The reasons given by the server are included to help you determine why
each recipient was rejected.

Recipient: <****@viston.com>
Reason: This target address is not our MX service client.


Please reply to Postmaster@charter.net
if you feel this message to be in error.
