I have a new computer and wish to set up an e-mail account from Outlook Express. In the set up wizard it is asking me for an incoming mail server (POP3) and an SMTP server for out going mail. Where can I get the information it is asking for? I'm not sure whether it is asking for a number or what? Many thanks.

When you signed up with your ISP (service provider) they should have sent you information like this (maybe in an e-mail).

If you have not got it, go to their web site and it should give you the details on there.

On my system (Virgin/Telewest) the details are as follows (yours will be different of course):

pop3.blueyonder.co.uk

smtp.blueyonder.co.uk
