MS Outlook

How do I get my MS Outlook working once it's installed? I can send messages,
but can't receive them. Do I have to have a different email address on my
laptop than I do on my desktop PC? If I use charter on my desktop and AT&T
on my laptop, does the @ portion of my email address have to be @att.com
instead of @charter.net?

Thanks,

Depends what you want to do;
If both PC's use the same mail account, then the first PC that Outlook is
opened on will receive all mail., and if you send a mail it wont be visible
on the other PC.
You can set the mail account to leave a copy on the server for xx days then
both PC's will receive the same mail.
But if you want to sync the mail accounts on both pc's you would need to use
third party snc tools
