papillon Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 hi, i usually use outlook to get the email, but then the emails are deleted from the server, so i cant read them trhough webmail. is there any way to change this in the configuration, so that the messages remain in the server and i can access them by webmail, even if they have already been downloaded with outlook? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevesh Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 This is for Outlook Express, but I think Outlook is the same. Tools - Accounts - Properties - Advanced Tab At the bottom is 'Leave a copy of messages on server'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OJB Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Another option instead of using POP3 to access your email with outlook is to use IMAP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Welcome to the forums papillon If you do as OJB suggests and switch the account over to use IMAP you will be reading off the server instead of downloading it to your PC. Then it would remain available through webmail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
