Hi Graham, no I'm not using Outlook, I'm using Windows Mail, but I've tried out many different e-mail clients.Originally Posted by grahamw48
I take it you must be using Outlook express...something I haven't done for years (or IE).
I'm wondering if you may have some sort of malware creeping around in there.
Perhaps you could go to the Windows site and download a fresh copy of Outlook, or whichever programme it is that is causing the problems. Don't they also do a free diagnosis of your operating system ?
The major problem I have is that using BT internet means the mail server is somewhat 'picky' and setting it up to interact with other devices like phone and iPad etc causes me to 'miss' messages on my laptop. So If I pick up a message on my iPad then although it remains on the BT server I can pick it up on my laptop.
It's all to do with settings and capabilities etc. Things like working with IMAP and POP3 seem not very compatible sometimes (not everytime it's seems random)
I was thinking upgrading might help out with that also.
It's all good fun, but taking me time to understand it all.
Those day's when I would just go out and buy a complete whole new system are gone I'm afraid.
