Friend of mine has AOL and wants to configure email to go to his Outlook

Thanks, Winetou

It cannot be done directly with just MSOE. AOL mail is proprietary, and you
will need third party software to make the connection. I never used it, so I
don't remember the name, or the source. Maybe using Google will help.

AOL doesn't allow mail access via POP3/SMTP/IMAP. You never know, they might
allow this in the future.
For the time being, your friend can download AOL Communicator. AOL Communicator
is very similar to Outlook Express and doesn't require the full-blown AOL
client to be on the system.
