Default Email Query

Stupid question.......

I have a Macbook, which I use all the time. We also have a big laptop, which my husband uses, and a small netbook, (which was mine, but has now been superseded by my Mac).

What I'd like to do, is stop my emails from going to all three laptops, and just have them sent to my Mac only. How do I do this?


Thanks in advance.

remove your account details from the mail clients on the other machines???

Is it web based email that you want to block access to from the other machines?

How do I do that? Sorry, I know I'm really thick.

I had my Samsung netbook first (WindowsXP) so my email was originally set up on that (O2). Now that I only use my Macbook, I only want my email to go to that, but at the moment it still also all gets sucked into my netbook, and the 'grown up' laptop. So I've got squillions of emails sitting on my netbook. Does that make sense?

just ask your mail client on the mac, netbook and proper laptop to "leave the mail on the mail server". just don't start up outlook on the netbook or the proper laptop.

Phew! A username I recognise! I didn't think there would be anyone I 'knew' in here.
