I have a desktop the XP home running a D-Link router I have a remote desktop
with XP home works fine. I had an Acer laptop worked wirelessly no problem.
Laptop crashed and I bought a Dell laptop. I can surf no problem but Outlook
can't connect so no wireless email. Wired email works fine. Any ideas as to
why?

Thanks

Assuming OE6, go to Tools, accounts, make sure the mail tab is the one
showing and select the name of the account you are using and then click
properties. Go to Connection and remove the tick. Click OK on those windows
till you are back at OE6 in the normal spot when you start it up. Now click
on Send/receive and see if you get email.
