I don't see that...

Caller: Hi, I'm getting an error when I try to send an e-mail.

Tech: And what is that error?

Caller: It says, "Reciepent rejected by the server."

Tech:
Ok, and what do you use to send e-mail?

Caller:
Outlook Express? Is that right?

Tech:
Ok, well, I need you to click on "Tools"

Caller:
I'm in my inbox, I don't see that.

Tech:
It should be at the very top of the window.

Caller:
I still don't see that.

Tech:
Ok, do you see where it says, "File"?

Caller:
Oh, ok, I see "File".

Tech:
Good, now go right, and you should see..

Caller:
It says, "Create Mail", "Reply", "Reply All"

Tech:
No mam, go right along the menus, you should see "Edit"

Caller:
I don't see that.

Tech:
Ok, you see "File"? Let's go ahead and click on that.

Caller:
Ok..I clicked on it.

Tech:
Now, if you go directly right you'll see "Edit", the menu should change when you get
there.

Caller:
Ok, it says, "New" "Open" "Save" "Save as..."

Tech:
No mam, right, you just went down. I need you to go right. You should see "Edit"
*short pause*

Caller:
Oh, ok, now I see it. "Edit"

Tech:
Good, now continue on in that direction till you get to "Tools"

Caller:
Ok, now I am on "View".

Tech:
That's good, should be one more menu from there.

Caller:
ok, now I see "Tools".

Tech:
Alright. Now, you see where it says, "Accounts..." at the bottom of that menu?

Caller:
I do.

Tech:
Good, now go down till you get to that.

Caller:
Well, I do, but when I move the mouse, the menu changes and it says, "Contents and
Index" "Read Me" and "About Microsoft Outlook Express".

Tech:
Ok, you just went further right, I need you to go back to the "Tools" menu, and do down.

Caller:
Oh, ok.
*short pause*

Caller:
Opps, it did it again.
*short pause*

Caler:
Ahh, ok there it is.

Tech:
Now click on it.

Caller:
Ok, it opened up this new window, "Internet Accounts".

Tech:
Good, now...
*calls proceeds on very smoothly from this point, with no real problems, then at the end of the call...*

Caller:
Oh, also... I was wondering about getting DSL...
