outlook e-mail setup


I am having some problems getting an outlook e-mail setup, I followed the
prompt from the tools box but nothing is working. Once I put in my display
name and the email address Shaquinawright@xxxxxx it keeps asking me
for some other things like ISP, POPP and I don't where to find them or where
there are. Can you help me please.

Unless you work for Microsoft, you aren't likely to be allowed to use an
email
address ending in @microsoft.com. If you do, ask for instructions at work.

Otherwise, you need to choose an email provider and get their instructions
for how to set up to use their email servers. Most people choose their
internet providers as their email providers also, since most internet
accounts
include one or more email accounts. The instructions are often available
somewhere on their web site; if not, you need to call them.

For more questions about Outlook, you're likely to get better answers
if you ask the questions in a newsgroup intended for Outlook users,
such as:

microsoft.public.outlook.general

Re: outlook e-mail setup

Looks like you are getting online through a Cingular (now AT&T) cellular
card. I don't think they give out email addresses. If not, you can get a
free email address from Gmail: http://gmail.com
Then, configure that account for POP access:

Then, setup that account in your Windows Mail:
