Windows 10: Receiving Emails on new computer

I just bought a new computer with Windows 10. I have set up my Microsoft account a bellsouth.net account and am trying to use the Mail app that comes with Windows 10 the envelope in the task bar. I can send emails out, but cannot receive emails at all. I have tried using the web interface through Microsoft and also cannot receive emails. The Kindle I have still receives email. The computer I had previously received emails until I removed it and replaced it with this new one. Why is this?

:)

 

Is it possible to restart a computer in response to an email notification?

Use Outlook.

Link at the bottom of the answer has information that helped with this answer. Kudos to GuidingTech.com

Create a .bat file first.

shutdown.exe /r /t 00

Save as Restart.bat

Make sure the computer is logged in with the email you receive the email Notification in.

You can setup different accounts for each computer if you wish and have your email setup to forward emails your receive as notifications.

Example.

Computer1@email.com is the Host PC with a Graphic card that is not Rendering.

Testemail.com is your email you receive notifications on.

When the Email is received have your outlook auto forward the email back to the
corresponding email. which in this case is Computer1@gmail.com

Computer1@email.com received at Testemail@email.com then have that email forward to the all Computers.

The Trick here is to setup a different Notification email to each computer so it knows which to shutdown.

For Setting up a Rule to Forward follow these instructions and enter in a word in the subject based on the pc you want to restart.

Note: This is for setting up your Computer which you receive the emails next we are going to setup the individual pcs.

Now Specify what you want the email to look for to trigger the Restart.

Example if you choose subject.

Say the word you choose is Computer1-RenderIssue

You will type that in the "Specify for words or Phrases to search for in the subhect"

Now that you have the that setup its time to do the final step.

Now whenever One of you computers have an issue when Rendering the Email will be sent to you with the Specified Computer. This will forward the email to that computer and restart the machine.

Hope this helps. Tried to format it the best I could while doing my Job.
