Default Setting up new Outlook e-mail address - help please!

Hi

I'm currently trying to set u a new Microsoft Outlook e-mail address. Someone has created a maibox for me and I have a POP server name, but when I go to set it up, Outlook is asking me for my Incoming and Outgoing mail servers.

How on earth do I find these??

Thanks

Steve

You must call your ISP {internet provider) and ask them what the POP3/SMPT is. Technically; they don't want you to use it anymore as it is a 'diff' part of the net. But aside from that, call them and ask 'em. alot of the time; {but NOT always} it is mail.{name of ISP}.pop3 etc....or pop3.mail.(isp) ....my opinion is call the ISP and ask them what your POP3 {AND} SMTP addresses are. They are seperate "servers" or in laymans terms, a special computer segment to take care of your mail. My advice is that you must call your ISP - Internet Service Provider and they will tell you those server (server is a computer set up to take those mail requests) addresses. that should do it.

I've found this - do you reckon this is it??

"4. Click on Servers.
Make sure that the incoming and outgoing mail server addresses are.
Incoming Mail(POP3): mail.madasafish.com
Outgoing Mail(SMTP): mail.madasafish.com"

The thing is, I think that workd if I'm setting up an Outlook Express e-mail to get my madasafish e-mails, but I'm trying to set one up for a new e-mail address for my business. For instance info@snailmadness.co.uk

What would I do in this instance? Thanks for your help so far.

You can set up seperate accounts. I don't use that program any longer, but I believe if you click on Tools at the top of the Outlook Express just above Send & Recieve button, then click on Accounts, then click on the mail tab & click Add on the top right. Then click Mail on the menu that comes up then fill in the info the same as when you set up the original one. Call that ISP to get their POP3/SMTP addresses. You will then have two accounts like having two mailboxes to check. I believe to switch between accounts just click the little arrow to the right of the send/recieve button once youv'e filled in all the info asked for by the wizard. Hope this helps.
