Default How do I add a Netscape Webmail account to Outlook?

I tried copying the IMAP and SMTP settings as they appear in Netscape, but I
keep getting an error stating that a component is missing. I was using
imap.mail.netcenter.com as the IMAP server with my Netscape username and
password entered, and since Earthlink is my ISP, I was using
smtpauth.earthlink.net as my outgoing server with username and password
enabled and entered. I verified all settings, but could not get Outlook to
send or receive mail. I have never successfully used Outlook before, and
would like to learn how to use it properly. Any help would be much
appreciated.

Does Netscape provide instructions for adding an IMAP account to Outlook and
if so, are those the instructions you followed?

Netscape does not provide instructions.

Perhaps Outlook can't handle their accounts, then. Try contacting their tech
support. If they won't give you instructions for Outlook, ask for
instructions for Outlook Express -- they should be similar. Post back when
you get an answer from them.
