The options for Internet accounts are accessed in Outlook through the Tools menu by clicking on E-Mail Accounts. When you click E-mail Accounts, this window will appear:

 

 

We’re only concerned with the first two options: Add a new e-mail account, and View or change existing e-mail accounts.

 

When you choose add a new e-mail account, you’ll see the figure in the first lesson, prompting you to choose a server type. If you choose to change an e-mail account, you will see a window with these options:

 

 

In this window, you can change your e-mail account or even remove it. You can also add a new account, which would bring up the same wizard we saw in the first lesson. If you have more than one account, you can also use the buttons in the window (seen on the right hand side) to move them up or down in the list, or change the default account. There are also options at the bottom to change where your mail is delivered; these will be covered in advanced lessons.

 

We’re not going to get into all these options right now because you don’t really need to know how to use them to use Outlook. This is just so you know what types of accounts are out there and how they may affect Outlook.
