Default keeping 2 versions of OE the same

I use OE on both my laptop and PC with multiple email accounts on each, is
there way to keep both versions the same, so if i have emails in my inbox on
my pc and different emails on my laptop, is it possible to swap them round
so all emails are on both? if that makes sense :S

same question with the contacts and newsgroups lists.

thanks alot

Yes. Whether emails are read or not is a function of the machine, not the
server. However, when they're deleted from the server can be a setting in
OE.
Set the email Properties on one machine to never delete emails; leave them
on the server. Make this the one that you use the most so they'll always be
available to the other machine.
Then set the other machine to delete them after, say 7 or 14 days,
whatever seems reasonable to you; there ar other choices there too . Read
mails periodically there and you'll have a complete set all the time.

You can manually swap files back and forth using the method in the last
paragraph on OE on this page: www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx

You can also get my OEX program (www.oehelp.com/OEX/), which will allow you
to point to a folder in OE on one machine and import it into the other.
