OK, cue wisecracks from Mac users - but I'm having trouble setting up an account for Mrs. L. under her user on my system.

Set up the email, Pop3, Smtp etc - just won't have it - will not download.

Any ideas?

    Tried that!

    Works fine on my profile, but just won't work on hers.

    Not sure. I ran Vista on a separate partiition on hard drive for a while but I found it's email programme "buggy". Can't you use a different mail client like Outlook? If not do a Google search putting the problem in as a question. I find that somebody somewhere has always had the same problem and there will be an answer.

    Turn off the system admin settings.
