    Can anyone help??
    I have just bought a laptop and I want to access my email account (which I have originally set up on my PC) on my laptop. Is there anyway to link the two computers as I do not want to set up a new email account.

    By Windows Mail I assume you have a hotmail account . Try googling hotmail on your laptop and signing in on the sign in page (checking the 'Remember Me' and 'Remember My Password' options if the laptop is only used by yourself) . Windows Mail aka Hotmail is a web-based mail account so you never actually had the account set up on your PC - you only had your PC set up to log you in automatically by remembering your username and password .

    Do you mean windows mail the cut down version of outlook, it comes with microsoft work...

    you need to go to tools - accounts and set up your incoming mail server and outgoing server....have a look on your email providers site for the details...u alos need to put in your emal address and password..

    if your using eircom - incoming would be mail1.eircom.net and the same for your outgoing....
