Running XP Dell Inspiron laptop.
I have a wireless router installed and this laptop accesses the web using the router. When I try to set up new email account on Outlook Express I cannot get the connection to go via the WLAN. I am given the option to create a dial up connection or connect via LAN and not WLAN. I assumed it would share the WLAN connection and access my pop3 and smtp mail servers using the WLAN, bit it does not. Ta.

Does your internet connection work properly?
if it does and you are able to get to your smtp and pop3 server OK from internet explorer you should be able to configure them through outlook too
