I'm sure this is a total newb question but how do I get these type of accounts to work with Outlook or Eudora? I have eprompter that checks all of my emails (I have them for different reasons...one for "business", one for "junk" (free stuff from HotDeal forums ;)) and the like...Also my school email. So I need to check all of them often)

Eprompter is nice for checking all of them, but I'm kind of getting old of it.



****Question**** What do I put for the POP and SMTP servers when trying to check an @aol.com email or @msn.com email?

Last I checked (years ago) AOL doesn't run a POP3 server they use a proprietary protocol that requires the AOL software.

For MSN paid accounts, they might offer POP3 servers, you would find out by going to their help pages and using their search ttrying "pop3" or "eudora."

It's not just AT where search is your bestest buddy :)
