Outlook Express default Mail account

Hi

My Yahoo Mail downloads all the email it receives to Outlook Express. How do I configure my Yahoo account so that a copy is left behind as well ?

thanks

Dean

In Outlook Express

From the Tools menu, choose Accounts
Select the Mail tab.
Double-click the account labeled pop.mail.yahoo.com
Select the Advanced tab.
In the Delivery section at the bottom of the window, check Leave a copy of messages on server

This will leave a copy of the messages on the Yahoo server as well as on your local computer.

Windows Live Mail is good because it syncs all e-mail to your computer and also to the server... very good windows live :D
