Ok guys....i'm trying to setup Outlook 2000 for my associate and AOL does not list their POP3 settings nor their STMP settings. Has anyone done this on OUTLOOK? thanks

No such thing. You have to use AOL's client or their web-based client to access AOL email because it's on a proprietary system.

Heh thanks Ladi....i found out the hard way! I had to call AOL 2 times and them MS once. They even told me to call Dell? WTF!!! How would Dell know AOL's pop3 and stmp settings? i requested to speak to a manager and demand why i should call MS to setup outlook express using AOL's settings which they couldn't provide me. So then a super said..."oh we dont support MS outlook" i was like WTF? All i can say is OH WELL...now i kinda look like an ass to my CFO cuz i told him that i can setup his outlook...which i have been doing for my other users and clients. ARGH!

you might could be able to use imap instead of pop3, i am not sure though.
