Ok.. I need to set up an account then.. I don't care to set up a new one..
Can I create a microsoft one?? Is that an option? Or just tell me what to
set up, I really don't care, I would just like it done. If you could walk
me through, I could manage. I need a user name, got that covered, an email
address, tell me @ who? and then the stuff it asks for from there.. the
incoming and outgoing pop3 and stuff. I dont mean to sound so stupid, but I
am new to all this. Never ha to do this before. As for what ISP, I am
logging onto.. If that means Internet Service Provider.. All I know is I
click on Internet Explorer...pay Cincinnati Bell, and call Zoomtown when I
have trouble. Or I use wireless depending on where I am working.. I hope
that answers the question..?? You are the first bit of help I have come close
to finding... Please keep it coming, I am so desperate. Thank you so much
for replying to me.. I feel like you are my only lifeline..!!!

Thanks, Christy
