In the field "Your name" you can enter any name, in the future it will be used to sign the letter. In this window, you can connect an account of absolutely any mail service, for example, Google or. To connect a mailbox, you must first register on the website of your mail service, for example, register a Google account for Gmail.
In some versions of Outlook, a link to register a mailbox account from Outlook will be available to you.
The section "Manual configuration or additional types of servers" is also available here. By selecting this item, you can manually enter the types (POP3 or IMAP) and specify the addresses of the servers of incoming and outgoing mail, as well as configure the ports to access them. This item should be selected when setting up corporate mail or mail registered on separate servers with different types of encryption.

If you need to change the settings of a previously registered mail, to do this, select the required mailbox from the list and click "Change".
After clicking on the "Create" button, the registration window will open, further steps will be exactly the same as described above.
The "Default" button will help you define the main box. By marking the desired mailbox with this button, you will set this mail as a standard one for writing and sending letters.
In order to delete a mailbox registered in the program, you need to select the desired one and press the "Delete" button. After doing this, the mailbox will be removed from the Outlook client, but not from the servers of your mail service, so in the future you can connect it again.
When you delete a mailbox from the list of Outlook e-mails, the mailbox file remains in which all letters are saved, therefore, to completely delete all information from your computer, you need to go to the "Data files" tab and delete the required file from there.
Interface
The interface of the Outlook mail client is quite simple and intuitive, it is also similar to the interfaces of the bazaar versions of mail clients. Now we will describe the main components of the interface and its capabilities.
Let's start with the panel on the left side of the window. At the bottom of it there are 4 icons that will open you "Mail", "Calendar", "Contacts" and "Notes". The main section is mail, when you select the next section, its interface will open.
Above are the lists of the main sections with divided folders for the convenience of working with mail. The first list is "Favorites", in which you can view the general mail folder for all connected mailboxes. This list can be collapsed if necessary.
Below the Favorites list is a list of Outlook Data File folders. Initially, all folders contained in it should be empty. Messages from all connected mailboxes will be duplicated there, but only fresh ones: those messages that were in the mailbox before it was registered with the system in Outlook will not be included in this list. If you want to move old messages to this list, you can do it manually.
Below there will be sections with folders of incoming and outgoing letters of all other connected e-mail boxes. All sent and received messages will be stored in Outlook data files.
When you select one of the folders from the left panel, the entire contents of this folder will be displayed to the right of it, namely the list of messages. The sizes of such panels can be changed, for this it will be enough to hover the cursor over the border and hold down the left mouse button and move it to the required distance.
When you select an email from the center pane, you can display its contents in the pane on the right. Here you will see full details as well as the body of the email. 
In order for you to be able to read all incoming letters from all mailboxes at once, you should put all folders with incoming messages in the "Favorites" list. So you don't have to look through each inbox for each mailbox separately, all letters will come to one folder. To do this, you need to right-click on the desired folder and select "Show in favorites" in the drop-down menu.
If you need to duplicate all old messages located in different folders of different mailboxes in order to read all these messages in one large list. To do this, you need to select the folder from which you want to duplicate messages, then select any message or press the key combination Ctrl + A to select all letters. After highlighting the necessary letters, right-click on any of the selected ones and in the drop-down menu click on the item "Move", then "Copy to folder ...". After these actions, a window will open in which you need to select the folder corresponding to the type of messages and click OK.

Conclusion
This article has described only the most basic functions of the Outlook mail client. This program has a fairly large number of functions and tools, and can be a good alternative to web versions of mail clients.
It is worth noting a very convenient and intuitive interface, which is very important when working with a large number of mailboxes.
After setting up an account in Microsoft Outlook, sometimes additional configuration of certain parameters is required. Also, there are times when the postal service provider changes some requirements, and in this regard, you need to make changes to the account settings in the client program. Let's find out how to set up an account in Microsoft Outlook 2010.
In order to start the configuration, go to the "File" section of the program menu.
Click on the "Account Settings" button. In the list that appears, click on the exact same name.
In the window that opens, select the account that we are going to edit, and double-click on it.
The account settings window opens. In the upper part of it, in the "User information" settings block, you can change your name and e-mail address. However, the latter is done only if the address was initially entered incorrectly.
In the column "Information about the server", the addresses of incoming and outgoing mail are edited, if they are changed on the side of the postal service provider. But, editing this group of settings is extremely rare. But the account type (POP3 or IMAP) cannot be edited at all.
Most often, editing is done in the "Login" settings block. Here is the username and password for entering the mail account on the service. For security reasons, many users often change their password to their account, and some perform the recovery procedure because they have lost their login information. In any case, when you change the password in the mail service account, you must also change it, and in the corresponding account in Microsoft Outlook 2010.
In addition, in the settings you can enable or disable remembering the password (enabled by default), and secure password verification (disabled by default).
When all the changes and settings have been made, click on the "Account verification" button.
Data is exchanged with the mail server, and the settings made are synchronized.
Other settings
In addition, there are a number of additional settings. In order to go to them, click on the "Other settings" button in the same account settings window.
In the General tab of Advanced Settings, you can enter a name for account links, organization information, and a reply address.
The "Outgoing mail server" tab contains settings for logging into this server. They can be similar to those for the incoming mail server, the server can be logged in before sending, or a separate username and password can be allocated for it. It also indicates whether the SMTP server requires authentication.
In the "Connection" tab, the type of connection is selected: via a local network, a telephone line (in this case, you need to specify the path to the modem), or via a dialer.
The "Advanced" tab contains the port numbers of POP3 and SMTP servers, the server timeout, and the type of encrypted connection. It also indicates whether copies of messages should be stored on the server, and how long they should be stored. After all the necessary additional settings have been entered, click on the "OK" button.
Returning to the main window of account settings, in order for the changes to take effect, click on the "Next" or "Account verification" button.
As you can see, accounts in Microsoft Outlook 2010 are divided into two types: basic and others. The introduction of the first of them is mandatory for any type of connection, but other settings are changed relative to the default ones only if required by a specific email service provider.
Outlook is not only an email program, but also a powerful tool for planning your time.
Using Outlook, you can keep a notebook, plan your day, and Outlook will not let you forget about your plans and will persistently remind you about it. Notes, diary, tasks and, most importantly, the ability to synchronize with mobile devices (for these purposes I prefer the ZEN mp3 player, it is with me much more often than all other mobile devices).
