Entourage for Mac

I use an office computer and also have one at home. When I receive and
open an email at home, that email is not in my In box when I check my
mail at the office - and vice-versa. Is there a preference that enables
the messages to stay on the ISP server until I manually delete them?

Hi.
I'm assuming that you use a POP3 mail account. For your situation, I guess
an IMAP-account would probably be better, but that's not what you were
asking. To keep copies of your messages on the server, go to Tools>Accounts.
Double-click your account in the list that pops up, and in the following
window, switch to the "Options" tab. Here's where you will find an option
called "Leave a copy of each message on the server"; make sure that this
checkbox is ticked. You can specify to delete each message after a few days,
or when you delete it on your computer. Hit "OK", and that should do the
job.
