Re: Can't receive mail.



Gary,
Thanks for the help. I had my wife's user name and my password. I changed
the password and it worked fine.
Thanks again
Jay

username being on the Servers tab.
You have a problem with BellSouth. What good is a second email
address if you can't authenticate with it?

I go to Tools, Accounts, and the only email address listed is my wifes. I go
to properties and servers, and the user name is the bellsouth user account
name for my overall email service that gets authenticated by Bellsouth. I did
try to put in my wife's email address and it didn't authenticate.

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?
