I recently bought a laptop with Vista and wondered the same thing. When I am on the laptop I check the desktop OE on line.

I do not have an answer but rather an observation. There *s h o u l d* be a way. But it depends how complex or expensive the solution might be. For example, I notice that my desktop at work gets synchronized with my home PC so all folders always have the same content. Now granted, people at work might have done a lot of things without telling me that makes this seamless, piece-of-cake looking to me.

Your two mail programs are accessing mail files located in each pc and that is what makes them be not in sync. If pc1 could access the mail file in pc2 instead of the mail file in pc2, that would help. Or if both could access the mail file by storing it on an external hard drive, maybe that would help.

Let's see if one of the gurus here can give some advice. I have a new pc that could need this feature.

I would love to know the answer to this question because I have the same problem. Good question!

Not too sure that would/could be done but perhaps someone has a solution. In the meantime as it is only outgoing mail you are concerned about it would be very easy to CC or BCC every email to yourself as well as the intended recipient. Not exactly elegant but it will work.

I dont have a networked OE here,,,,,

Have you tried looking in Vista Control Panel / Sync Center ?

or in vista open ...
C:\Users\mikep\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Mail
then tools / Sync Center
