I've been reading the threads about changing from OE6 - > Outlook, and they
appear to require configuring Outlook, but doesn't it get configured via the
installation wizardry ? It's not an additonal step/process is it ?

Thanks,

Steve
 
OK, thanks guys.

Also, can I keep both OE and Outlook for a while,meaning being able to read
and respond to emails, etc from both OE and Outlook ? to make sure I'm
comfortable with Outlook, because I've used OE for years, and at my age,
change is somewhat stressful. If it is possible to keep both, are there any
special things I need to do ?

Thanks,

Steve
 
Not unless you configure your accounts to leave a copy on the server so both
apps will receive the mail
However mail sent with one app wont be visible to the other.
IMO better to stick with the one app
Since OE is primarily a pure email app theres not much of a learning curve
for the mail part of Outlook
 
Ok, thanks again.
How do I configure for that ?

Also, what about Newsgroups. In OE, my mail and newsgroups are together. I
can't seem to fing any newsgroup access in Outlook. Is that feature available
?

Thanks,

Steve
 
Outlook doesn't do newsgroups. This chore is still left to OE or whatever
3rd party program you are happy with.
 
How do I configure for that ?

It's on the Advanced tab of your account settings. Since you never stated
your Outlook version, finding it is an exercise you can pursue.
