Can Outlook send/receive both a dial-up ISP and a broadband ISP?

I have for several months been using as my sole email connecton the address ., and have used a pay-as-you-go dial-up service as my sole internet connection. This week I have had installed a wireless router, broadband, and have acquired Plusnet as my ISP for broadband and the following as my default email address Never post real addresses in newsgroups unless you LIKE to receive spam and viruses. Newsgroups are trolled by 'bots looking for addresses to use. My question is this: Do I need to reinstall the cable connection between my home computer and my home landline BT phone to access my dial-up connection to Orangehome (tel: 0844 056 4000)? Currently and as I write I am connecting to my Orangehome dial-up address via the web. It would be more convenient if I could use the wireless router, and that I continue to use ‘Microsoft Outlook’ to organise my incoming and outgoing emails for both email addresses. I'm interpreting this to mean that you want to access your dial-up account's mailbox while connected via broadband. This should be possible. Create an account in Outlook whose account type is POP/SMTP. For the E-mail address, use the Orangehome address and specify the Orangehome POP server. FOr the SMTP server, specify the BT SPTP server. FOr the Username and Password, specify the Orangehome credentials. Click More Settings in the account wizard and on the Outgoing Server tab, select "My outgoing server requires authentication" and click the "Log on using" radio button. Enter your BT username/password credentials. On the Advanced tab, specify whatever ports the POP server (Orangehome) and SMTP server (BT) require you to use. You may or may not want to consider checking "Leave a copy of messages on the server". You may want to until you know everything works correctly. These settings should do the job. -- Brian Tillman
