I'm having lots of trouble trying to figure out where to start.  We have a
new small office and we would like to send emails to eachother using Outlook.
I don't have any clue how to even set one up....especially when they start
talking about POP3 and all this other computer language. I just need someone
to explain it to me the easiest wasy possible, step by step, and all
requirements.

Actually, Becca needs to start a lot earlier in the process than that document does. She needs to get a mail server. Outlook is a mail client, not a server.

Becca, if you have broadband Internet access, see if your access provider can offer mail accounts on their server for everyone in the office. If not, then you may need to acquire and install a mail server in your office. That sounds like it might be more than you can handle yourself, so I'd suggest you find someone in your area that works with small businesses to get their mail set up.
