OutLook Express Setup

Once you open Outlook Express you will find this in the upper left hand corner of the OE window. Find the Tools choice and click on it.



Once you click on tools a menu will open which will look like the above picture. Take your mouse down to the Accounts... choice and click on it to open the next window.



This is the window that will open once you click on Accounts... You may already have one or more e-mail account(s) listed in this window. With Outlook express you can have multiple e-mail accounts with in one program.



Click on the Add button. A small menu will appear and you will have three choices. Take your mouse to the Mail... choice and click on it. This will open the e-mail account wizard.



This window will ask you for your name. It is recommended that you use your first and last name in this box, but it is not required. This is the name that people will see when they receive your e-mail. If you wish to use an alias this is where you would type it.



This window is asking you for your e-mail address. Just take your login name and add @americainter.net to it.



This is where you add the address of the web server that contains your e-mail.



Use your account name, the part before @americainter.net and the password for this e-mail account. In most cases you will use your User name and password for your dial up account here. If you do not want to type your User name and password each time make sure you click the remember password box. Make sure that you leave the check box for "Log on using Secure Password Authentication(SPA)" unchecked.



That's it! Once you see this window you just need to click on Finish to complete the set up of your e-mail account.

If you need to add another e-mail account just repeat this process again.
