Outlook won't default as mail program
I've gone into options and clicked on make outlook the default mail program,
but it still won't send/receive mail. I've been using Express, but I want to try Office Outlook. I'm running XP, and Office 2003.

Outlook won't default as mail program
Did you install your mail account(s) in Outlook? What happened when you used the Test Account Settings option? What error messages did you receive?

Outlook won't default as mail program
Milly, yes I have installed my accounts on Outlook, using the same settings
as in Express. The message I get when I use test account settings" is "unable to send test message, please verify the email address field" In the test account task window, I see four green checked tasks, but the last one is the error (send test message).
