How should I write an HTTP in Outlook?

I have tried to finish my wizard to use my mail accounts with outlook, but I
never write my HTTP correctly. Give me an example of how should I write it,
like: yahoo or yahoo.com or with my entire name or what? Do I have to add
another account to messenger or is the same of hotmail? Somebody please
explain me step by step with examples (like johnsmith@yahoo.com), since the
beginning of the wizard to the end, because I am so new in computer issues!!

What exactly are you doing where in what version of Outlook?
What do you mean with "writing your HTTP"?

HTTP accounts only connect to Windows Live Hotmail. You cannot use an HTTP
account with Yahoo or any other mail service.
