Outlook Express

[SJS]

I am attempting to set up Outlook Express as my default
mailbox. I have gone to tools-accounts-server and
entered the ISP in the incoming and outgoing mail boxes
and hit apply. However when I attempt to send mail I
receive an error message that the STMP outgoing mail
server cannot be found. Have I missed a step? Do you
have any suggestions?

The pop3 name is usually pop3.ISP
The smtp name is usually smtp.ISP

To sure, each ISP may have variations, go to the ISP web
site to find their setup FAQ which will have names for the
SMTP, IMAP and POP servers and any other required settings.
