change e-mail provider

recipio

Please help a terminally stupid guy ( me )
I've got an e-mail account with Applemac ( my other computer is an iMac and it works fine for $99 per year ) Outlook express is the default e-mailer on my new laptop and it refuses to send mail " error server could not be found "
Now if I stayed up 'till 5.00 I might sort it but I'll ask the resiudent genius's here for help if possible Yrouble is, the laptop is great and a lot faster than the Mac.
cheers

:rolleyes: thanks again .
I've discovered that since I got the laptop and the iMac set up going through an airport extreme ( wireless ) the mail on the Imac is down also unless I go to the mac account on their website. Must be the original settings are changed . Will get back after fiddling !
