Outlook 2000 Setup for InterMail
The following
instructions cover typical usage of Outlook 2000 and assume the software
has been installed correctly on your system.
With Outlook, you can
set up additional mail accounts for every mailbox from which you need to
retrieve mail. The instructions below are only for individuals with a
direct Internet connection, by modem or network. If you are behind a
firewall or proxy server, the information below may not work. Consult your
business’ network administrator for more information.
There are many more
options available in Outlook. See the software's documentation for more
information on the advanced options.
