Reply:You have to contact Roadrunner to get that info. They will provide you with the POP3 and SMTP server info so that you can set up outlook.
Reply:Your roadrunner provider should have set it up in Outlook. Call them or if you are using Yahoo email and want to forward it to pop3 you can only do that if you have a yahoo account. If y our roadrunner is web-based then go there and go into "options". They should have the instructions for pop3 forwarding.





Hope that helps.
