Microsoft Outlook and old BT/Yahoo emails

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry




I am not a computer expert but can use email program. Recently I had
laptop crash and had to reload windows XP and all drivers. I have 2
computers a PC and laptop. Both on BT broadband and using BT/Yahoo
email with 4 addresses. I contacted BT and asked about using Microsoft
Outlook as my email program on the laptop. The advisor said yes, and
talked me through the setup. Now the laptop has emails, all 4
addresses. But contact list has dissapeared. Also old emails from one
address vanished. When trying to use the BT/Yahoo email on the PC, all
previous emails dissapeared on all 4 email addresses. The BT advisor
said do not load the BT Broadband disk onto laptop. I still log on to
the internet on the PC with a specific email address.(The BT broadband
page). I dont do that on laptop. In Outlook, I went into email
accounts and changed the display name so I could see which address was
which. before, it was just mail.btinternet(1) for example. One other
had no number, the other was (2). Doing this created new accounts with
the new names, now I have 6. It appears that all emails after the
change go to the renamed addresses. I dont want to lose all my old
emails or my contact list. Please help. Thanks.
