Microsoft Outlook 2016

Hi,

I just switched from Comcast to Verizon (for emails/internet, TV and fax phone) and while I think all went well with the new email ID via the Verizon.net site, I prefer to use Microsoft's email with the newly set Verizon's email ID. I tried to set up my new Verizon email in the Microsoft's email so that all my emails would come to me with the new ID {edited for privacy}. I tried unsuccessfully to make these 2 recognize each other. I realize I need the correct port number, internet name and so forth for both the pop3 and smtp sections.

Can anyone provide me complete, clear, step by step instructions on how to make the Microsoft's Outlook 2016 software recognize, receive, process and send the {edited for privacy} (which is my former email ID I no longer use Comcast) ? I am having a hard time making the emails from the verizon.net site correspond to the Microsoft's Outlook 2016 software and vice versa.

Any advice/assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Libby.
