OL 2000 reads but won't send mail

[Scott Richardson]

I am trying to get this computer to read mail through OL 2000 rather than
OLExpress. I have gone to Control Panel, Internet Connections, Programs and
select OL2000. When I boot OLExpress it asks if I'd like to make it the
default mail reader. OLExpress is getting all of the incoming email and none
is going to OL2000. I have closed OLExpress, sent myself an email from
another computer, click on "send/receive" and nothing shows. So I open
OLExpress and there is the email. I need to get my email via OL2000 -
OLExpress. Please help.

Do you have your mail accounts set up in Outlook? Have you removed them in
Outlook Express?
