| | Sending and receiving e-mails from Outlook Express to Windows Mail I just got a new laptop with Vista on it and tried to setup my Windows Mail. I used all the same settings and information as on my Windows XP Outlook Express on my desktop. This is my work e-mail and AT&T U-verse says I need to contact my office web host because they cannot help with third party e-mail. Why can I send and receive e-mails using the exact same settings through the AT&T U-verse using Windows XP Outlook Express and not on Vista? Is this a AT&T problem or a Vista problem, any suggestions? |
