Default Can't do OUTLOOK 2000 "MS Excg. Server/Mailbox Setup Wizard"-Servername-Mbox nam

Can't get past "Microsoft Outlook Setup Wizard"- Microsoft
Exchange Server name, and mailbax Name, etc. Had to
uninstall then completely reinstall Outlook to start over
because I don't know the names and paths it wants.

I'm a new Wind. 2000 Pro and MS Office Premium user-but
adavanced Windows 98 user.
When I click to open Outlook the setup wizard starts to
set up the MS Exchange Server and Mailbox Names.

I am the Administrator, too, and all the help stuff keeps
saying to get these names and paths, etc. from "your
administrator."

Please, is someone willing to help me setup my Outlook for
MS Exchange Server? You know for "Corp or Workgroup"
setup, rather than setting Outlook up for just "Internet
Email Service." Anyone? Please!

I can give you my San Jose tel# and perhaps, if you're
willing, you might walk me thru setting up the initial MS
Exchange Server, Mailbox, Remote Mail, etc. - thru the
wizards, that is. Truthfully, I am a fairly advanced
computer user, just never used MS Exchange for Workgroups
before, yet, I need to, and I want to setup MS Outlook for
Corp or Workgroup (CW), rather than just Internet Email
Only Service or "IMO.".

HELP!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!! I'll be back at about 4:20 PM
after picking my kids up at school in a few mins.
Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!

The Exchange server name will be the computer name that the server uses on
your network. The mailbox name is the alias that you gave to the user when
you created their mailbox. You, as the administrator, did set up an Exchange
server, yes? If not, then you shouldn't be trying to add an Exchange
account.
