How to add an email accountI haven't been able to figure out how to add an email account in Outlook. I
have followed the instructions and I can get to where you click on test account settings. It goes through the steps but a box will come up with the email I made up and I enter my password but the box just keeps coming up. Is there something else that I have to do before adding an email account in Outlook? I have a password for something, but I don't know what it is for. I was given some notes from a lady at work on how to set up an email, but it's not working. No one at work knows how to set up emails...they're not very computer literate. Please help!!! THANK YOU!!
