Okay, don't laugh to much on this one. The only stupid question is the one you don't ask.

How the hell do you configure outlook as your default email? my regular email is netscape. It wants to know my ingoing and out going,do I have a pop3 or http, etc. I just want to read my netscape mail from it or set up a new account with it. Please explain as if talking to a idiot.My provider is comcast.

 thank you

Mr. Idiot

Sean,

You have a pop account most likely.

In MS outlook you need to go to the Action pull down.  The pick E-mail Account.  You get a box that comes up and you pick add new email account.

You would enter in your name and email address.

In the incoming you would enter something like this:  pop.sbcglobal.yahoo.com
In the outgoing: smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com

You would have to check with comcast to get the exact setting for the above.  But my guess would be replace the sbcglobal.yahoo with comcast.

That is about it.

Stephen

Sean.............as my SGT MAJ (CSM) once told me, "Captain, ther is no such thing as a stupid question, but the are plenty of stupid people who ask questions!"  Not saying that applies here.  It just reminded me of a "lighter moment" in the Army!:)
