I suggest using something else but if you want to stick with outlook, there is a comperhensive tutorial on the microsoft page (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/assistance/ch790018071033.aspx)

Outlook is great, millions of companies cant be wrong, they use it.
Most ISP support POP3 (Post Office Protocol) accounts.
When setting up your accounts email servers have whats called SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol).
Your ISP can help with the setup, but here is an indication:
pop3: mail."your ISP".com
smtp: mail."your ISP.com
yes you can attach you Yahoo mail to come directly to Outlook too.
You can decide weather to keep a copy on the sever or download it off the server, so you dont get a full mail box.
Hope that cleared thing up a little

first you want to see if your ISP can support POP3 that is what outlook works off of. I like outlook cause it is it's own program and seperate from IE.
