Help needed to configure Outlook with AOL.

[Pyrrah]

Firstly I have read the helpfiles on both AOL and Microsoft I can
receive email but I can't send it. Can anyone help?

Thanks for your reply. I discovered it was Norton Firewall that was stopping
it from working. It's funny that the whole way through the so-called 'help'
from AOL nobody thought to suggest it! I had to delete and set-up the mail
account before it worked properly though.

Thanks again, I know where to find this help now!
