| Can
I use Outlook to automatically login and check my AOL mail without having to establish a
connection manually? Outlook does have a mechanism for starting an internet connection when checking
for mail. This setting has to be enabled for each account that is configured in Outlook.
You need to follow the
instructions available at http://www.enetbot.com/man_3_3_1.htm
for configuring a account in Outlook. If you have done this already, you can follow these
steps to automatically connect when checking for mail.
1. From the Tools menu of
Outlook, select Accounts.
2. Select the account that
you want to modify and click on the properties button.
3. Go straight to the
Connection tab and choose this option - Connect using my phone line and select the Dialup
Networking connection as America Online.
Click OK and try checking
for mail. Outlook should automatically try to initiate a internet connection if your are
not connected. |
