What ISP is your friend using? Are you trying to access webmail or a POP3 account?

My friend is at my house because his computer is broken. we are trying to get into his email account from my c
hard to answer this question without know a few more details of what kind of email account he uses. But generally, all you have to do is go to the hosting site of his email and log in under his name and password. An example would be a yahoo email. simply make sure you are not logged in under your name - go to yahoo.com and log in under his name.
Reply:If the e-mail is webbased such as yahoo mail then there shouldn't be a problem, However if it's a POP3 account he will need to go to his ISP and get the correct addresses to put on your computer to view his mail





I recommend using web based e-mail addresses so you can access them from any computer
Reply:1. If your email is web based, such as Yahoo, simply go to www.yahoo.com and enter the username and password, because the email is stored on the Yahoo server. Ditto for Google and other web based email.


2. However, if you have made the mistake of using MS Outlook, or MS Outlook Express, since your email will be stored on the LOCAL computer, your old email is subject to being destroyed along with the other data that you may have failed to back up.
