I am trying to set up outlook express to receive my yahoo email but I am stuck in the set up wizard in finding the following information that was requested:For e-mail accounts, you'll need to know the type of e-mail server you use (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP), your account name and password, the name of the incoming e-mail server and, for POP3 and IMAP, the name of an outgoing e-mail server. For a newsgroup account, you'll need to know the name of the news server you want to connect to and, if required, your account name and password. I called time warner my isp and they said I need to get the info from yahoo.

I tried that 3 years ago with Windows XP, and I couldn't get it to work, so I scrapped the idea.
