Cause From time to time, information in your account may change. Your ISP may give you a new password, or the name of one of the mail servers may change. The good news is that you can make editorial changes to your account without deleting and creating a new one. To make those changes, you'll need to access the Properties dialog box of the existing account.
The Pain Killer To make changes to an account, follow these steps:
- In Outlook Express, click Tools | Accounts.
- Click the Mail tab. Select your account and click the Properties button.
- On the General tab, you can make changes to your name, organization, e-mail address, and so on.
If you need to make changes to your user name, your password, or the mail server name, click the Servers tab and make the change, as shown in the illustration. Make sure your ISP has directed you to make changes before doing so, or your connectivity will be disrupted. Once you are done, just click OK.
