    microsoft outlook

    how do i set my internet so my emails go through outlook instead of just my server. I 'm on Tiscali broadband if that helps. i did try & set it up to no avail, but i was probably doing something wrong.

    Um...they must go through Outlook if thats what you use to read them and they must first come from your server. You'll need to be a little clearer in what you mean

    And its not your Internet. Its mine

    aha you just need to

    add a new account like this...

    and use these server names when it asks

    incoming email (POP3) pop.tiscali.co.uk
    outgoing email (SMTP) smtp.tiscali.co.uk
