Hi Tim,

 Sorry that I did not mention it eralier, but yes, it is a POP3 account & as
far as I know, per the Highstream Support staff, I have the accounts there,
set up properly. And they are both here, working at OE. As long as I open my
Secondary account first, the mail appears there, however, if I should open
my Primary account first, the mail meant for my Secondary, display on my
Primary !

 Thanks very much Tim for hanging in here w/ me !
