HP 434.uk If the ISP Provides the Browser, If Using Outlook Express, Sending e-mail messages

If the ISP Provides the Browser

Follow the ISP’s instructions to download its Web browser and e-mail program and to set up and use your e-mail account. You will then be able to send and receive e-mail each time you connect to your ISP.

If Using Outlook Express

After you sign up with an ISP, and connect your modem, you can run Outlook Express from the Start menu.

The first time you start Outlook Express, the Internet Connection Wizard window opens if you are not already connected to the Internet. You will need to provide connection information such as an account name, password and

the names of an incoming and an outgoing mail server to use Outlook Express. If you are unsure how to answer any of the questions, contact your ISP.
