AOL are my internet providers and I am currently using aol to send and

recieve email. How do I configure things so that email is automatically sent

to outlook and is it possible to do this while keeping my aol email address?

I use OE and setup should be similar:



It has to be an IMAP account



General Tab



Use the AOL address as email address



Server Tab



Servers: In: IMAP.AOL.Com

Servers: Out: SMTP.AOL.Com

Check "My Server Requires Authentication



Connection Tab - Setup will enter any defaults



Security Tab- Should set itself (3DES)



Advanced Tab



Out Port: 587

In Port: 143



IMAP Tab



Check For All New Messages In All Folders



UNCHECK: Store Special Folders On IMAP Server (AOL Gets Real Bent On Not

Having That Set)



You should be good to go
