Setting up a "ghost" e-mail account, need help
I don't know if this can be done but it seems like it should be. I want to be able to receive duplicates of my emails on my laptop. As it stands now I have my work e-mail on both the desktop here and my laptop at home. If I get it on my laptop I don't get it on my desktop, then I have to go through a forwarding routine to get it delivered to my desktop. I would like to be able to check it with the laptop without preventing delivery to the desktop (like my cellphone does). Is this doable?

For Outlook and OLE, In accounts > advanced tab, check leave copy and how many days. Others are similar.

Use IMAP instead of POP3 (if it is available) and all mail is stored on the server until you move it or delete it. Don't matter which client you use.
If you can only use POP3, there is typically an option to "leave mail on server after retrieving it" or something along those lines... Or you could always forward your email to gmail and use that instead...
