I recently installed Office 2007. I'm using Vista home premium and it'd up
to date. When I try to open outlook, it says it needs to connect to my
provider and asks for my user name and password. It then hunts for the
connection and finally gives up!

What's the problem! I go to the provider all the time to field junk mail,
so there's no question about getting it right.

A second question. Even after configuring Outlook, I intend to use Mail.
Will I have the chance to designate the default mail client?
