Thumb drives are the bees knees.
I mean it, the bees freakin knees! If you're an engineer you can carry around
collections of small programs you use every day, install small linux
distributions and make things out of them like an entire phone switch
http://nerdvittles.com , carry around a small installation of jfw, leave secret
messages for geo cachers, conduct space experiments and far more. Anybody
remember the old days of buying memory in blocks of 64K for upwards of $500
per? Just to put things in perspective. These thumb drives are so cheep they
literally give them away and contain gigabytes of space. Although, I have to
admit, this whole (the network being an extension of the desktop thing) wierd!
At 150+ megabits it's almost impossible to tell anymore the difference between
locally run and remote applications. All this stuff out in the cloud just
blends in now on the desktop, I really never would have called it working this
well and I was selling internet access up until 1998.
With stuff like backups now you might as well use a solution like Jungle
Disk which allows you to store all your files, securely encrypted, up on the
Amazon computing cloud for a very few bucks considering what you're doing.

Another thing you can do, If you have a thumb drive. put it into the
other computer then take the messages you want to have on your main
computer. That's what my friend does. if she's waiting for something
important.

Checking the box for leave a copy on server should have done it. Have you
gone back in and checked to be sure that is the setting you currently have?

Subject: [accesscomp] retaining all e-mail messages on primary computer
I now have two computers. I am running Jaws 10 with Outlook Express and
XP home on one and XP pro on the other. I am not sure of version of Outlook
Express, but think it is the latest one.
Anyway, I want my primary computer (the desktop) to retain all e-mail
messages even when I download e-mails to my secondary computer (my laptop).
This is primarily because of the reason that my primary computer has all kinds
of folders and filters set up and I want to keep it as my primary recipient of
e-mails. I went into accounts and have played around with the settings, telling
OE to leave a copy on the server on my laptop computer, but still find that
when I download messages to my laptop, they do not then later show up on my
desktop. How do I correct this situation?
I hope my explanation makes sense and thanks for your suggestions.
