[nfbmi-talk] Using Outlook Express with ATT

Mary and I just switched to ATT for our internet.  Switching I S P's is not
fun.  The answer to your question is absolutely yes.  I am not sure of how
many email addresses you may have with att, but Mary and I each have one and
I use regular Outlook and Mary uses her Braille Note which emulates Outlook
Express.  We have had no problems from ATT, although we have created some of
our own inadvertently.

Warmest Regards,

Fred

Hi everyone,

yes, that article was interesting.

I am asking for a friend. Can you use outlook express with at & t high speed

internet? I know that with comcast you can have up to seven email addresses 
through comcast. We are trying to find my friend a easier way to access his 
email.  I have never been good at web based email although I've been told it

is safer.

I don't care, I just want something fast and easy to use.

Best,
Georgia
