Outlook Email Question

[BillieJean84]

It says: The host Tiffanylw (my username I picked) could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the account name correctly. Port: secure SSL, No, Socket Error 11001, Error Number 80x...

Please help me use Outlook as I want to be able to use this as an existing email account.

Thank you.

OK, you should install Windows Live Mail. It's easy to set up and use.

Well the idea is that Windows Live Mail replaces Outlook, you can transfer your email accounts over to it. Hopefully the same error will not occur.

But if you don't like it for whatever reason, you could just remove it and try to fix Outlook...but I can't help you with that.
