Default setup

I installed Outlook 2003 and selected MS Exchange rather than ISP for my home
use. Now I can't get it out of that mode. I get an error message: MS Exchange
Server is unavailable. This is followed by asking for the MS Exchange Server
and mailbox. If I click OK or Cancel it kicks me out and Outlook never opens.
I uninstalled and reinstalled and it never goes through the initial request
of asking what type of email account I want. Am I doomed?
Does anyone know of a way to get back to the initial account setup so I can
choose ISP/POP account?

Thanks!

In Control Panel, run the Mail applet, click the E-mail Accounts button and
remove the Exchange account, adding in the POP account your ISP gave you.
