POP3 = "Post Office Protocol version 3" and is the "download my mail" server name.

SMTP = "Simple Mail Transport Protocol" and is the "send my email" server.

These are common mail terms regardless of the email client.

Outlook is a "Personal Information Manager" program typically included with the Microsoft Office suite and offers not only email functionality but Tasks, Calendaring, email distribution list management, contact list (address book) management, search functionality and saved searches to quickly identify emails in your inbox that meet your search definitions. It works well with Microsoft Exchange enterprise email platform, but does not require it to work.

Other than setting up the POP3 and SMTP settings in the email configuration setup, I highly recommend selecting Tools / Options and reviewing EVERY SINGLE SETTING in there. It will help you understand options for configuration and allow you to customize them to your liking. Most of the time the defaults are okay, but in some cases you may prefer non-default settings.

If you use Outlook on a laptop, you'll especially wan to look at the offline send/receive settings.

After doing so, look at every option in every menu, starting with the File menu. While doing so pay special attention to the Rules Wizard (under the Tools menu) which allows you to create and save rules for handling incoming email.

One of the best features of Outlook IMO is that you can drag and drap emails onto the Calendar, Contact, or Task icons to create an entry based on that email. For example, if you receive an email from a friend to meet you somewhere at a particular date and time, drag and drop the email to the calendar icon, fill in the blanks for the date/time/location, set the reminder, and you now have a calendar entry to remind you to be there.

If you open an email, you can right-click on the senders email address and choose "Add to address book" to create a contact list entry.

Outlook is a very feature-rich email client and PIM. There are many more features than I have outlined here. You can learn more by clicking on Help in Outlook, and reading through the entries that interest you. Search for "tutorial" in the Help menu, there might be a section in there for new users.

If you like Outlook but prefer to use Linux, there is an excellent Outlook look-alike email program called Evolution. It comes installed by default in the excellent Ubuntu linux build, available for download at http://www.ubuntu.com .

God luck.

ISP is likewise hassle-loose as cyber web provider provider. given which you have an cyber web connection, you're using centers from an ISP. besides you should use Microsoft Outlook offline as a private organiser. you should use it as an e mail shopper provided you had an e mail account configured and you're linked to the internet. Outlook show is barely an e mail shopper.
