Ok start with the easy one I would guess.
How do I add an additional email account to the Mail program on the Start / Metro menu?
The second one relates to the first. I am on my second laptop with Win 8 due to the first having to be returned because it had issues (much like myself ).
The problem is this: On my first laptop, using the Mail program I was somehow, after much tinkering and not knowing what I was doing, was able to install my primary POP3 email account. I know I was told by a few, including my POP3 Email provider that this was not possible, but it had nothing to do with know how, however somehow that I don't even recall how I was able to get that POP3 email addy working on the Start / Metro mail app. At this point I have no idea or remember how I got to the screen which allowed me to configure the POP3 settings. Regardless, it was done.... on my old laptop which was returned & exchanged.
The problem gets deeper. I desperately need to get that email addy reconfigured on my new laptop as when I set it up I idiotically set it to remove all incoming email FROM THE SERVER after ten minutes as I did not anticipate no longer having that laptop up & running with the previously set up mail.
So... to make a long question & explanation even longer, and this ties in to question #1 about adding another email addy to the Mail app, I now desperately need to re-setup that POP3 email addy on my new laptop so not only can I get my mail, but change the settings so it's no longer whipping my emails after 10 minutes from the server.
Hopefully I explained a rather convoluted issue adequately.
Any help, suggestions or acts of God to help me get back my email that I have been using for years would beore then greatly appreciated.
Thanks for reading my novel.
