I have "Outlook Express (provided by demon)" from the last Dispatches
disc.  I am experimenting with another ISP.  I use a DUN to connect to
that ISP, I have all the settings in the drop down menus of "Outlook
Express" set for the other mail machine and news server.  I can download
and send mail and use the WWW through that other ISP, but every now and
then, Outlook express launches Turnpike's Connect, and starts dialling
Demon.

I'd like to carry on using Turnpike for Demon, and use Outlook Express
for the other ISP.  How can I tell Outlook Express not to dial Demon?

Regards,

that's because you've asked it to !  change your mind using the
Connection tab of Internet properties (in Control Panel or View/Internet
Options in Internet Explorer). Press the "settings" button and select an
appropriate DUN connection.
