Configuring Outlook with AOL

[TMelendez]

Can someone please give me the correct settings to
configure Outlook to SEND/RECEIVE e-mail from my AOL
account? Not being able to do this is frustrating to
someone who usually gets the computer questions!

Thanks
Tony

AOL uses a proprietary mail system that does not work with standard e-mail
accounts. You cannot configure it as of this moment. Rumors are that they
are considering opening their format to work with Outlook and Outlook
Express.

Don't hold your breath.

SWEN virus, all mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without
