My computer is being repaired. I have borrowed a computer that has outlook --
through office 2003 installed. How can I access my outlook account -- somehow
change the user name & password so I can check my e-mail & send messages?
Thanks in advance for your help.
 
You dont have an outlook account you have an account provided by your ISP
which you can access in OL
I would use the Mail Applet in the control panel (with OL closed) to creat a
new Profile, add a data file and your email account details
By creating a new data file, you can remove it and copy it to your PC when
its returned
 
I have tried to use your suggestions -- setting up a new e-mail account with
the settings that I used in my other computer plus my current smtp
information. I am repeatedly prompted to enter my network password & when I
get out of that loop I am told that outlook could not connect to the incoming
POP3 server or outgoing mail server -- it's a lot more text to the 2 error
messages. What am I doing wrong?
 
yes -- if I understand you correctly it's connect via DSL -- using my account
info with my DSL provider -- AT&T IS. DSL working OK. The account I'm trying
to access is already set-up on the mail server -- Is there something in the
"data file" area that I may need to change?
 
The hang-up seems to be that the computer has difficulty finding the outgoing
mail server SMTP. Connected to the POP 3 mail server properly. I am currently
connected on DSL using my account info.
