Email help plz

[auntypurple]

Hi,
I am with pipex/homecall broadband. I don't want to use the email adress they have given me as it's got my first and last names in it. Can't seem to add any more email address to this account. Does anyone know where I can get a new email address, that will work with outlook express?? Am I right in thinking yahoo and hotmail don't?
Thanks in advance for anyone that can help

Yahoo certainly does - you can set up any email address with POP forwarding to be picked up by Outlook - I'll just find the instructions for you.

Outlook Express

Thanks for that tribpot, already have a yahoo address so i'll set that up now. Thanks for your help

No probs - if you need to check it's working you can email me at ysp @ amileformaude dot com and I'll reply!

Hi again tribpot, well I printed off the instructions and followed them to the letter ang can't get it to work . I must be something wrong

What error message do you see?

gmail/googlemail works with outlook express and there are instructions withing the gmail site

Hi Tribpot,
I dealeted the account, but will try adding it again when I have more time and let you know what the message was.
