Title: Techy help required again please. Post by: KingPoker on November 02, 2007, 11:25:51 PM Hi,
Im just trying to set up outlook express on my PC. Couple of questions as i have never used it before 1) is it possible to have mutiple email accounts ont here so i can see all my mail using just outlook? 2) When i try and register an address it asks for the incoming mail server and also the outgoing mail server, what the hell does this mean and how do i find it out?? OR is there any other available software, that i might be able to get hold of free that will alow me to have a central mailbox for all my email accounts? as i now have at least 4 if not 5. Any help would be appreciated. Title: Re: Techy help required again please. Post by: Robert HM on November 02, 2007, 11:53:37 PM 1) Yesit does, open a Mail account for each one
2) Depends upon your ISP I believe. Title: Re: Techy help required again please. Post by: Bongo on November 02, 2007, 11:55:43 PM http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/
Anything has to be better than lookout express. Serverwise - ask the provider/look at their docs. Title: Re: Techy help required again please. Post by: Laxie on November 02, 2007, 11:56:33 PM If you go to the website for your ISP, they should have a help section with the incoming and outgoing mail settings listed for their service and your Outlook. I have 4 email addys set up to land in my Outlook and I'm no computer techy, so I reckon we'll get you through this ok.

The incoming mail server will be a different mail server for each account..... The outgoing mailserver will always be the same for every account, and that is the outgoing mail server of your ISP... I have maybe 8 accounts running on OE... Cheers Carl.. Title: Re: Techy help required again please.

Post by: KingPoker on November 03, 2007, 12:04:17 PM Thankyou all for your help. We use it in work for merging the 4 different area office mail boxes so i thought it was possible, just when i have tried it before always got stuck at that server info page.
Will try it later on this arfo and update on here. Title: Re: Techy help required again please.

Go on then, explain why it doesn't do this. Title: Re: Techy help required again please.
