Configuring my E-mail to work with Outlook 2007

Or maybe it was a POP3 account, I don't remember myself (though I
thought it was an IMAP account) but I would tell you for sure if I could
boot up on my old PC and view my Outlook settings. I can't, however,
because the motherboard in that system had went. And that motherboard is
no longer manufactured so I was forced to buy a new PC. I wasn't ready
to upgrade just yet and I wouldn't have bothered you or Iweb about this
if I was able to still use my Pentium4 with "Outlook XP."

If all that you describe were happening to me, I'd start over with a new mail
profile and double-check everything as I configured that profile, adding only
the types and number of accounts that I know I wanted. I also would not let
Outlook autoconfigure the accounts, but do it manually using the instructions
from the mail provider.

If that doesn't work for you, I'm stumped and I hope someone else can help.

If I delete my stuntsillusion account and then try to recreate it by
clicking "Add a New Email Account" from my Mail section in Panelbox, I
don't get asked anytime during the process to specifiy whether I want to
create a POP3 or an IMAP E-mail account. Instead, all I'm asked to do
after I click the link that says "Add a New Email Account" is:

I'd start with a new mail profile, not just a new account.

 Enter the Username and Password that I wish to use.
 Enter the Mailbox quota (EG. 250 MB)
 And then click the "Create" button.

There is an option to bypass this automatic account creation and create it
manually. I told you this in my prior post.

After removing the stuntsillusion account from my "Outlook" profile, I
went to "Start button" then
Control Panel User Accounts and Family Safety Mail (32-bit) "Show
Profiles..."

The only one that it showed was my one with the "Profile Name" that I
call "Outlook." And it only has my ISP E-mail address as of now, so I
then clicked "Add..."

For my second profile, I entered
" for the "Profile Name" then
clicked "OK." From the

above I proceeded to _launch_Outlook_ (choosing my newly created
profile) but I still can't receive any messages to the stuntsillusion
one, so I then switched profiles and tried writing my own test message
from my ISP E-mail address to the stuntsillusion one. I closed Outlook
and then reopened choosing my stuntsillusion profile once again, and
then I clicked on "Send/Receive
Only." But the test message I
sent to myself never came, I kept checking for the next couple of hours
and I also looked in all of these stuntsillusion profile locations:
-Personal Folders Inbox
-Personal Folders Search Folders Categorized Mail
-Personal Folders Search Folders Large Mail
-Personal Folders Search Folders Unread Mail

Have you tried using the "Test Account Settings" function in the email
account setup dialog? That quite often throws up useful error messages

Did you log into the mailbox with a web client to see if the message actually
arrived in the mailbox? If it doesn't, clearly Outlook can't download
messages that don't arrive on the server. That's a delivery problem that only
the mail service provider can trace.

I sure hope the address you've been posting is not a real address because if
it is, you've opened yourself to an influx of malware and spam. It is unwise
to ever post real addresses in a newsgroup unless you're prepared to deal with
the spambots that will harvest that address.
