I've tried to set up Outlook before, but just recently I uninstalled it
and
tried again. Using the instructions and on the AOL website, I've tried to
set up my AOL e-mail with my Outlook 2000. The biggest problem that I
have
is that under "Tools" i have no "Accounts" option. If anybody could tell
me
what I did wrong I'd really appreciate it.
