Some Emails Not Being Received in Outlook Express

[xmf]

In general, many emails sent to this address are received on the laptop, but not all. Outlook Express is also installed on a desktop (using the same account) and the problem doesn't seem to be occurring there at all.

I came across THIS thread, and thought I found a solution in it, but both computers are already set to leave a copy of messages on server.

TIA

Anyone? Thanks

Is Gmail the mail server?

No, I believe it's verizon (not my account, I'm helping a friend).

OK, it's been a while since I've used OE but I remember there is a file in the store folder that controls where OE last left off in downloading emails. If you were to backup your store folder and then delete it's contents then it should download all the emails. You can find this folder my going into options, maintenance, store folder.

That didn't work either.
