outlook 2002 set up

[luis amaral]

hello everyone,

I have outlook 2002 in my computer and am running windows
xp professional, which is upgraded from 98se. I want to
set up outlook, but don't know what to do!
The first time I tried outlook after the upgrade there
was a wizard which would have helped me, I didn't know
what the heck this was at the time, and closed it. Now
obvioulsy it doesn't show up again (from what I
understand it only appears the first time you attempt to
use outlook after the upgrade/installation). I can get
into outlook just fine, but can't send, view, or retrieve
e-mail!

I'm sure there is a way to still set this up, but I have
no idea!

Anyone who could provide me with detailed set
up/configuration instructions would be of great help.

Thanks everyone,
Luis

Hi luis amaral,
wow. Okay let us begin.
1. Please click the Outlook Button, after that Outlook will open.
2. Than you have to go create an Email Account, maybe over hotmail.
Read this for create one.

After that you have to do your privat settings, and maybe you find some tips

thanks for the tip. Yes my problem is here in step 3.
3. Choose HTTP as Server Type | NEXT
The HTTP option is greyed out, so I am not able to select
it. All other options are available.

Is there a setting I may be able to change so this option
becomes available??

Thanks,

Mary

please try this
Are you using the MSN Outlook connector? Look for disablehttp key here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\11.0\Outlook\Options

1 = disable

Tip is from Diane Poremsky two postings after yours
