It can be done IF
1) Your ISP supports IMAP or HTTP servers.
It can ONLY be done via HTTP IF
1) Microsoft supports that particular ISP's HTTP servers.

Currently, Microsoft does not support HTTP servers other than its own,
unless you pay for premium service.

In fact, if I'm not mistaken, Microsoft currently supports HTTP server
access only if you pay for Outlook via subscription.

You maybe right Mr. McDaniel, but that is ridiculous since I already paid for
the program in the first place. Guess I will have to get another e mail
program. Thank you for the help.

What's so hard about removing the POP account and adding the IMAP account?
