Default Can't find email server

I just purchased Outlook 2007 and can't send or receive any email from my
pop3 accounts. I am currently running Vista Home Basic. The "Enter Network
Password" window keeps on popping up. Before purchasing Outlook 2007 I was
using Microsoft Mail and my Popo3 email accounts were working fine.

Did you allow Outlook 2007 to autoconfigure the mail account? If so, try
deleting it and recreating it with the same settings as you use for Windows
Mail.

Open a command prompt window and enter

echo %appdata%

and

echo %localappdata%

What do you see?
