For the future, you may want to consider a webmail service like Gmail, which can be set to come into your Outlook Express account just as if it had come thru your ISP. It does a good job of eliminating spam and phishing emails and with Outlook Express's uber-flexible "rules" you can practically eliminate spam. And when you change ISPs again, you won't have to change your email addresses at all. I don't know if Outlook works as well as Outlook Express in this instance.

Subject: [PCSOFT] email provider switched
Hi, folks. I'm running Win7 64bit upgrade. I'm switching from Verizon to
Comcast for email. I've set up an Outlook email account for Comcast, but
want to find some easy way to let everyone know about the new email address,
copy my contacts into the Comcast account, OR even better, set up a generic
account somewhere and push Comcast (or the next provider) to that
address-like Gmail. I already have one Gmail account for work and want to
keep the work & personal accounts separate.
I am in over my head. I try to do what the instructions tell me about
copying and transferring Outlook contacts, but it's not working. This ain't
easy for me.
Is there an elegant way resolve my issues?
Brenda, Columbia, MD.
