What server name do I use when I install Outlook?

[Guest]

I had to re-install Outlook 2003. It asks for a server name and I simply
typed "MSN" in the field, which did not work. What should I enter in this
field?

Thank you

MSN accounts don't use POP3/SMTP. They're their own mail server type (HTTP)

So ... do I leave the field blank or type "HTTP"?

Thank you

Your ISP can give you that information.
