Creating Outlook Express account

[kenboyles72]

got a question. i dont like using outlook express and had it uninstalled from my puter. but, the class that my wife is taking, requires her to use outlook express for this particular semester. i'm using cox internet and have an email account with 'em. what do i need to put for the outgoing and incoming server?

Should be this:

Incoming (POP3) Mail Server: pop.cox-internet.com
Outgoing (SMTP) Mail Server: smtp.cox-internet.com

(from http://www.cox-internet.com/support/email_help.htm)

Thanks, but actually its:

Incoming (POP3) Mail Server: pop.central.cox.net
Outgoing (SMTP) Mail Server: smtp.central.cox.net

i finally found this out after 2 hours. i did their automatic online answering something or other and it automatically configured outlook for me. i just went back and looked to see what it had entered in the server options.
