[Windows SIG] Fw: Outlook Express Forwarding Problem

Hi Granger, Let me ask you a question, Are the emails going to the wrong 
location in only Outlook Express, or if you go to the RR webmail, are 
they going to the wrong location there too? here is the webmail address: 
https://webmail.austin.rr.com/

This is the first thing I would do; Secondly, check in the webmail 
settings while you are there also,  there is a place you can type in a 
forwarding address, if there's one there, that could be your problem. 
(it's under options and settings), I did this for myself one time and 
then forgot to turn it back off.

if you go there and log in to each of your accounts and everything is 
going to the right place, the problem is very likely a setting or 
mistaken information in your account settings in Outlook Express.
In that case I'll need to punt...
