How do I set up dual e-mail addresses?

Can anyone tell me how to set up email addresses using Outlook Express?

• I`m trying to set up multiple email addresess with outlook express and it asks me what my pop3 and my smpt servers are what are these and what do i put into the spaces. James

• Answer:

  Outlook is completely mute when it comes to prompting you. I hate it. But this is what you need to find out: pop3 is just ordinary mail, where you log into a mail server (another computer, such as at Yahoo mail- wherever your email is actually stored). So your incoming pop3 mail server will be the actual address for the inbound server. How you find that out, I don't know. I have my email accounts set up through the Opera Web Browser, which finds the addresses and port numbers automatically. You could always get Opera, just for the convenience of copying the settings across to Outlook. The SMTP is the outbound server, which will most likely have the same address as the pop3 (inbound, actually) server. Be warned, though, that you may need to upgrade yahoo mail to "plus" to use outlook. I know you definitely need to upgrade to 'plus' to use yahoo mail with Opera. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. Try googling whatever your email is, and add search terms like "outlook" "set up" and you may hit on the exact info you need.
