Re: Can't receive mail.

On the desktop computer, go to Tools, Accounts, and verify that
the only email account shown there is your wife's. Then select that
account, click Properties, Servers, and verify that the username field
has your wife's email address.

I have a problem receiving email messages.
I have one account with Bellsouth.net, through my DSL service.
I have two email addresses, one for me and one for my wife.
I have Vista and Windows Mail on my laptop, with the account showing my emai
address. Works fine.
I just bought a new desktop for my wife, with Vista.
I set up Windows mail, using her email address, and the bellsouth
servers:mail.bellsouth.net.
From this computer, I can send emails fine.
But I receive emails sent to my email address, even though it is not in any
account.
I don't receive emails to my wifes email address, and there are messages
waiting when I checked her webmail account.
Strange.......
I removed Google Toobar, No success.
Any ideas?
