need them first!

can do this by clicking on it's entry to highlight it
and then click the 'Set as Default' button (Shown as
grayed out in the example above).
Congratulations! - Your email account
is now set up and ready for use!
It is worth noting at this stage that you can change
the account name to something more meaningful.
If you have more than one account
in the 'Mail' window - click on the email account that
you have just set up.
Click 'Properties'
The email account 'Properties' box appears.
You can change the 'Mail Account' name in the first
box to anything you like. This is particularly useful
if you have more than one email account with the same
ISP as you will be able to easily identify the account
you want to use. Otherwise your will have two accounts
with the same ISP and the same name in 'Outlook Express'
Your email account is now ready for
use and has been named as you want it.
