In the Outgoing mail server you will need to put your ISP's (Internet Service Provider's) Mail Server. This may require you to contact your ISP and asking them to assist in setting up the "Outgoing mail [SMTP] server".
If Earthlink was your ISP your Outgoing mail server would look like this...
Example: mail.earthlink.net
(NOTE: if you already have an e-mail account set up in Outlook Express that is working fine, the current setting for that e-mail account's Outgoing mail server should work for the new account you are creating. Just copy those settings and paste them into your new accounts Outgoing Mail server field.)

The window below is where we enter the logon information need to access the mail server. The Account name must be your entire e-mail address as shown below. You may choose to enter your password and check the "Remember password" box. This will eliminate the need to enter your password each time you check this mail account.
