adding new email account!

[Reese]

I've done this many times but is anyone else having trouble adding an email
account to outlook 2007? I've tried hotmail, gmail, and my corporate. Outlook
says it cannot connect to servers.

What kind of account are you trying to add? Is your Internet connection
stable? Might there be a firewall (software/hardware) in the way?

The problem would be between your and the mail servers - either with outlook
or your internet connection. Do any of your existing accounts work?

I just loaded outlook onto a new computer I just built, everything works for
sure. I'm using my hotmail and gmail from the web sites now. I just can't
seem to get them up on outlook. My other computers are running outlook just
fine never had a problem adding email accounts before!

What sort of error(s) do you get when you try to use those accounts?

I figured it out late last night, I had to download microsoft outlook
connector to use a hotmail account. Thanks for the help!
