| | Need help setting up an email in Windows Mail please Hi, I am not very computer literate, I tried to set up an email address tonight on Windows Mail which is on my laptop, as my version in Vista Outlook Express 2007 has been replaced. I have a tutorial to set one up in OE 2007 using IMAP protocol but of course being Vista and Windows Mail this doesn't help any. If I go through the wizard I can't use IMAP as it says it's not valid and won't set up the email address. Can anyone help me sort this out please any help would be appreciated. My BB provider is Sky. thank in advance |
