    all right ya see i have this scanner printer faxer and copier all in one but the prob is i dont know how to use it. Its a BROTHER, MFC3420C all right heres how it goes i put a picture inthe place were it scans. then it said select scan i selected to go to email. and then it say press start so i press the black start button then it conects to my computer.
    these are the steps i take (I'm writng it exactly how i see it)red is what i put in

    1.When you send e-mail, your name will appear in the From feild of the outgoing message. Type your name as youwould like it to appear.
    Display name: Sergey
    for example: John Smith

    2.Your e-mail address is the address the other people use to send e-mail messages to you.
    E-mail address: the1surge@yahoo.com

    3.My incomig mail server is a |POP3|(down arrow) server.
    |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||IMAP| (i can choose by cliking on arrow)
    |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||HTTP| (i put those lines ther because if i space it wont be inthe right place)

    Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP) server:
    DONT KNOW WHAT TO PUT HERE

    An (SMTP) server is the server that is used for your outgoing e-mail
    DONT KNOW WHAT TO PUT HERE



    all right thats were im stuck the last one so please if any body knows what to do tell me for what step (1,2, or3) and what to put there
    ive never used a scanner

    When you scan an image into your computer, there's usually a default area where it goes to.

    The best way to find out is to open up that scanning program, and clicking on options to see where the actual image files goes to.

    If you want to post it in the forums there is no need to any email address. All you have to do is click on "Go Advanced" if you clicked the quick reply botton and go to "Add Attachments". But attachments are not supposed to be more than 100k, so I'd advice you to find a host for images, like the one this boards provides. :)

    100kb is a size limit. Kilobyte, as they are called, are smaller than the usual megabyte - 1 mb = 1000kb.

    So basically, your picture has to be smaller than 100kb in the size. How to check that? Mark the file - right click - Propeties.
