How to set up Outlook

[biffa1968]

Hi All

forgive me if this doesn't make sense - i brought my two-day old son home from the hospital yesterday. anyway - here goes...i built my own high-end pc and generally have no problems installing and setting up software. i installed office 2003 recently but have no idea how to set it up to receive e-mails. i have had an e-mail address for some time but can only read them through my ISP's website but it's very limiting. i really want to be able to make use of all the feature Outlook provides. what do i do with settings etc to make my e-mail address useable by outlook? any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks in advance

Would help if we knew what the isp is

if hotmail for instance : in outlook go to tools > email accounts > add a new email account and select the http option for hotmail.

your isp should have instructions for setting up in outlook.

Sure more knowledgeable folks will help better

Theres a built in wizard, just add a new identity from the outlook menu and follow the on screen instructions.
