Email server

I'm having problems in the email account setting. It asks for the server but
I don't know what to use. I don't know the incoming or outgoing. Would you
be able to help in assisting with this problem?

You should get the set-up information from your ISP. They all have these
details on WEB pages, easy for you to set up. If you're still having
trouble finding it, let us know who your ISP is and we'll see if we can
bring you along a little further.

Re: Email server

That depends on who your email service provider is.
If you have an existing email address, what is the part after the
@ symbol?

Not without knowing what ISP you use. This is not a generic setting, it's
part of what you pay your ISP for.

The information regarding specific server names will come from your ISP.
You will then use your username and password to authenticate it.

Check the documentation that came with your internet service, or go to the
ISP's support site. The answer to this will be there; it's one of the
basic questions.
