Default folder and Connection to Server

O

OutlookBlurr

Have just re-installed Office 2000 pro on a new computer at home. Had started
Outlook earlier but cannot remember what I did with the configuration steps,
as I was generally using a web mail.

Now I want to use Outlook to backup my mails in my own PC. Try starting
outlook but first error msg was: "Network problems are preventing connectionn
to the Microsoft Exchange Server computer. contact your system administrator
if this condition persists."

After i click "OK", the next error msg reads: "The action could not be
completed."

Next after i click "OK", a Microsoft Exchange Server dialog box is opened
for me to fill in the server name and mailbox name. I don't know what to fill
as this is my notebook for own use and only hooked up to my home network -
we're not sharing mails or applications.

If I were to skip all the following steps, an error msg displayed: "Unable
to open your default e-mail foldeers. The information store could not be
opened." After that it ask whether I would like to open my default file
folders. If "no", Outlook closes. If "yes", Outlook opens but I can't see any
mail, calender and the other Outlook folders.

Please advice what I can do as I have tried removing and reinstalling
Outlook and Office. I still get the same problem.
