For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.He will have to ring BT with account details to find out, if you have no broadband account details written down.
You will need to make sure those details are entered into the account settings of Livemails/Outlook Express/ ... whatever client on the PC is being used.
Outlook Express is pretty easy to setup and understand. Windows 7 uses a newer version (Livemail though) Keep the supplied version if using 7 .. as the latest versions are much more technical .. and quite like MS Outlook (an Office application)

Personally, I would create a new one, GoogleMail is free and fine for most people. If you use the one provided by your ISP (BT), then, should you switch to another provider in the future, SKY for example, you would need to inform everybody of your new email address as BT would close that account. By using a non-ISP related one, you can switch ISP's as often as you like.
