QuickMail Pro: Getting your district email at home when necessary

To Leave email...or not to Leave email.

That is the question!

Checking and Reading email from home:

If you DO NOT leave your email on the server, when you log-in and retrieve your email, it is removed from the server.

If you do this at home, you will not be able to retrieve the same messages at school.

My advice to you is, while checking your email at home,
be sure to check the LEAVE MAIL ON SERVER button in the preferences ON YOUR HOME COMPUTER.

That way, when you check your mail at school it will retrieve those messages you read at home.

Some where in your preferences/settings/configuration you have a check box or some kind of setting that asks if you want to "remove your email from the server" or perhaps it says "keep your email on server"

That is the setting that you need to adjust to: LEAVE MAIL ON SERVER ON YOUR HOME COMPUTER.

Sending email from home:

If you send someone an email message from home, you will not be able to view that message at school from your "out box". If you want that message on your school computer here is something you can try:

- Send yourself the message as well in the "Cc" area . ("Cc" stands for Carbon Copy)

In fact, sending your self messages from home to school is a great way to remind you of something or send an attachment from home to school.

There have been many days that I have created a worksheet, test, quiz, webpage, or picture at home to be sent to school. Instead of putting it on a floppy disk or creating a bunch of unecessary work, I just send it to myself as an attachment.

When I get back to school and check my email, there is my file and off I go!
