Help with something very simple that I cannot seem to find a straigh answer too. I guess at some point I tried to setup a .mac account but never got it working. Basically, all I want to do is remove that and have my aol.com address setu as the email for this home pc. First, can I do it? Second, so me non technical easy instructions would be great.

Thanks in advance

you are using mail.app (the program that comes with the system) to read your email, correct?

If so, you will need the aol email details to setup the mail.app

I'm not familiar with aol, but many email services supply the username, password, POP address (to receive emails) and SMTP address (to send emails).

All you need to do is enter does details into mail.app
