I use Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP2
Part of Microsoft Office Basic edition 2003
I use Outlook as Personal Folder.
I don't want to use hotmail, I just want to be able to use Microsoft
Outlook.
The most mail providers have tutorials on their websites how to
configure mail clients (POP- and SMTP-Server et cetera). See if your
provider have such a tutorial and configure your Outlook according as
this description.
If then Outlook doesn't work yet, poste again and tell us the error
messages you are receiving.
