Default Problem setting up Outlook

I am attempting to switch from OE to Outlook. When opening Outlook, I am
prompted to enter in Microsoft Exchange Server. How do I find out what to
enter in that box? I have set up my mail accounts through Control Panel.
But cannot get Outlook to open the default folders. It insists on me
entering a server. When I "cancel" that box, the whole program closes.
Thanks for any help!

Default Problem setting up Outlook

If you go under Tools menu scroll down to e-mail accounts it will prompt you
through the steps. However, you must know who is your sever &/or provider. I
hope to have been of some help.

Control Panel-Email icon-accounts- remove the exchange account and install
your account.
