Outlook 2007

[Guest]

Please HELP! I have been trying to configure my outlook for the past year
without success. I have had professionals try and solve the problem to no
avail. I have scoured the internet reading for something that might
help....your my last hope!
I am using Windows XP
My ISP is att.net
I use a Linksys router and an Qwest modem, a wireless system
I have followed all the instructions for clicking and unclicking various
boxes throughout the email set up process---
While going through the set up wizard, the wizard is unable to connect to
the server (encryptend and unencrypted), so I try it manually...
the error message reads: " cannot find your server".

We don't know exactly what setup process you are following unsuccessfully --
can you please tell us step by step what you are doing, from beginning to end?
