Setup Outlook

[Mark Pasquale]

When I turn on my outlook a box comes up for user name and password but how
do I know what that is and how do I set one up?

The user name and password is your isp/email one.

Is it asking for Exchange credentials?

It depends on your configuration. Are you connecting to a POP3 server,
or Exchange?

MS Mail? What version of Outlook do you have? If you open Control
Panel>Mail, do you see a "Show Profiles" button? I can't imagine why a
reference to OE would appear in anything for Outlook.

Tried that still get the same thing
