Trying out Outlook365
I may be barking up the wrong tree. I have used Outlook 2010 for 8 years. I am sick of the dozens and dozens od .pst accounts I accumulate and have to merge every time I reinstall windows. I thought switching to 365 might make life simpler in the long term and enable me to store all my emails online rather thasn clutter my PC. I am a home user.
Is 365 only for busieness?
I am trying to set up my internet accounts with my isp server details viz incoming server imap.plus.net outgoing server mail.plus.net
I don't even know if 365 is the thing to do this with?
There is somewhere to put my password (for isp's mail servers) but I see nowhere to put my username ? (which defines which mailbox I am access).

Here you enter your office 365 mail and password

- You should get an email when someone replies! Make sure the tic box “ email me when someone replies” is checked right under this message box
- Hi! Seems you have an mail account using imap today!
You can go to office.com and sign up for a personal office 365 subscription!
