Outlook help

hi

I have been given an old laptop from my company. When i got it i installed O2 broadband and email on outlook express on the basic user (i'm really sorry...not techie at all).

I worked out how to get on to the administrator user but my Outlook isn't set up when i'm in admin user....any ideas??

follow the steps here to set up outlook express:-

Use these same steps to find the the information you need by first logging in as the "basic" user. make a note of the email address used and the "pop3" email\server names. you will need the same password used for the basic user account for the administrator account.

Your question also doesn't make it clear whether you are using Outlook or Outlook Express. If you are using Outlook and it was configured to access a corporate Exchange email server, you may need to reconfigure it for "internet mail".

Last time I had to do this it required the MS Office setup disk to complete the change, but there may be a way to do it without that.
