Default connecting outlook to msn.com

I am using my DSL line. the DSL modem has a wireless connection that hooks
me to the internet. one thing about my setup now is i am using W2k instead
of XP which the blown computer was using. i thought when i was hooking up
outlook on that computer, i had to download something for outlook from
microsoft. that was about 3 years ago and my brain gets a little fuzzy with
age. i will check out your links. charlie

Glad to help again.

You could use the outlook connector too, instead of HTTP. In fact, at the
end of june you'll need to switch to it as they are ending http support.

Just upgraded to another drive and installed XP. I think that was needed to
install the outlook connector. now outlook is working fine. thanks,
charlie
