Sending and Receiving
E-Mail
Your HP Pavilion home PC comes with an
electronic mail (e-mail) software program from
Microsoft called Outlook Express. Some ISPs use
Outlook Express. Other ISPs provide their own
e-mail program and Web browser, and they
may not let you use Outlook Express or your
preinstalled browser.
Note:
Some models have Microsoft Outlook instead of
Outlook Express. For details on using Microsoft
Outlook, open the Outlook program and
access Help.
Before you can send and receive e-mail,
you need:
3
An account with an Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
3
Microsoft Internet Explorer (included with
your HP Pavilion) or other browser program
(usually provided by an ISP).
3
A dial-up modem/telephone connection, or a
network adapter connection from your PC to
the ISP.
Note:
If you decide to use a DSL or a cable Internet
connection, contact your ISP for any specific
software and hardware you may need.
If the ISP Provides the Browser
Follow the ISP’s instructions to download its Web
browser and e-mail program and to set up and
use your e-mail account. You will then be able to
send and receive e-mail each time you connect
to your ISP.
