Sending email to your self

[still kicking]

I have bought a new Laptop since the old one got to slow. So my question is can I send mail from the old one to the new one? Since both use the same mail address? Can I send mail to myself? I know my old laptop has to be charged up again since the battery will be flat, but is at possible to do that? Don't tell me to send it to cloud I know nothing about it.

You can send an e-mail to yourself from any account on any computer...  the old computer or the new one you are using now.

The emails all live on the hotmail/google/whatever servers, NOT in your computer.  That's why you can't access your email without an internet connection.

 

On whatever device, you go online using a browser, open your email account and send to any email account.  None of that lives on your hard drive unless you upload/download attachments.

 

You can open your hotmail account on your laptop AND your phone simultaneously and send message to/from your email account.

 

With email open on both devices, send an email to yourself from one of them.  Go to the other device, and you can see that same message in the 'sent' folder before it reaches the inbox.

 

Anyhoo, if what I think you're asking is can you send all your old emails from your old computer to your new computer, that's not necessary.

 

If you're asking about attachments/files you've downloaded previously, then you need to transfer those to your new hard drive manually.  If they came from old emails that have not been deleted, you can open those emails on your new computer and download them again.
