You can set that up in Accounts jimbo. There is a section in the OUTLOOK Help that tells you what to do.

Basically, you need the info that you need for any acct. You just add different accounts. I did it long time ago, but now don't use the other email accounts just my default........so deleted the other accounts.

Thanks.

So i basically go into help and find out how to do it.
I have had problems before at outlook express, because i entered my yahoo details in and a box came up asking for a specail yahoo account which is designed for outlook. obviously this costs.
So i just basically look on the help and that will guide me the way?

Thanks again.

Hotmail can no longer be integrated into outlook express ..... unless you want to pay for the privilage. I don't know if yahoo has a POP3 equivilent.

Ok, I knew they were working on something like that.

I am willing to bet that you can't get to either hotmail or yahoo mail accounts through OUTLOOK anymore without handing over some money and downloading some special files.

NO TANKS!! for me!  

It doesn't matter, at least you helped a bit!

POP3 still worths with outlook express.

I can still access all my hotmail accounts via outlook express.

Just go to options, then account, then new mail acount and the wizard will walk you through it.
