I would like to delete Outlook Express is this advisable?
I am going to be using Microsoft Outlook 2002 which I
recieved w/Toshiba PDA and already have it set up on the
same PC as OE. Can I use Microsoft Outlook for multiple e-
mail accounts?

With Outlook, you can integrate and manage e-mail from multiple e-mail
accounts, personal and group calendars, contacts, and tasks.

Outlook requires that OE be installed to work properly (rendering HTML,
etc.)

Delia,

Go to 'Internet Options'. Select "Programs". If you have Microsoft Outlook 2002 installed, the drop down menu will give you a choice of programs. Select Microsoft Outlook 2002. Click OK and close. You will get a message sometime later saying Outlook Express is not your default email program and would you like to make it your default. Just select "No" and your other program will run instead.

Be aware that when you run a systems check, it will indicate that Outlook Express (default) check failed. That's okay. Since OE is the default for the systems check, it doesn't scan for other mail programs. I don't know why.

Yes, you can use multiple e-mail accounts. Open Microsoft Outlook 2002 and select "Options." Then select "Properties." You will find a display for e-mail accounts. To include other accounts, select "ADD." Complete the account information then send a test email for each e-mail account. These settings must be identical to configurations in "Control Panel, "Mail" for e-mail address(es), connections Incoming (POP3) and Outgoing (SMTP). The Port Server Numbers will automatically be selected by default. You may name each email account anything you like that identifies it easily for you

Under "File" in my e-mail program I select from the "Send this message from" menu and choose which e-mail address the message is "From.

Sorry I overlooked including this in previous message.
