Outlook will not install/function properly

I am having trouble setting up Outlook 2003. I have installed all components
of Office Professional Edition 2003 and successfully set up an e-mail
address. Upon setting up the e-mail address, Outlook automatically generates
an e-mail to the server as a check. This e-mail went through and was received
with no errors. However, I do not have the ability to send e-mails inside of
(normal use) Outlook. Specifically, when I click on the "Tools" button at the
top of the screen, there is NO option to Send/Receive.
I have utilized the add/remove programs utility in the control panel to
remove and re-install Outlook, but the problem remains. (Still cannot send
nor receive mail).
Further, I have utilized the add/remove programs utility in the control
panel and removed and re-installed the entire Office Professional Edition
2003. Still no luck. (As a side-note here, when I re-installed Office, the
e-mail account from the previously deleted Outlook was still there).
Though this is probably an ESO error (Equipment Superior to Operator), any
ideas on solving this would be greatly appreciated!

You must do more than set up an address. You have to set up the Accounts
Servers in Tools, Email Accounts, Add a new acct before the send receive
button shows up. Get the correct server settings from your email provider.
The email doesn't go to the server when checking your setup. It should show
up in your Inbox. Remember, Outlook is only for POP mail, not web mail like
Hotmail or Yahoo web mail.
 
Did you find an answer for this problem? I am having the same problem.
don't understand the reply. Could you be more spacific. I don'
understand.

Thanks!
