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, such as America
Online, provide their own Web browser and
e-mail program and they may not let you use
Outlook Express or your preinstalled browser.
Before you can send and receive e-mail,
you need:
An account with an Internet Service

Provider (ISP).
Microsoft Internet Explorer or other browser

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.
