XPress Mail is actually made by Seven.com. It's Seven Mail V6 re-branded as Xpress Mail.
I recommend you use Seven Mail V7 which is still in Beta and not yet released.
To get it you'll have to go to http://preview.seven.com/ to download it.
I only say this because it's better than the older XPress mail
But you can still use XPress Mail if you choose, though.

To use it with a service like excite.com, you'll need to configure XPress Mail (or Seven Mail V7 Beta) to use an 'other' POP3 mail service.

This page explains the general settings to use for excite.com:
http://help.excite.com/mail/help_pop.html

You should be able to just follow the set up excite help page.

Here's what that web page say:

Quote:

If you are an Excite Email Gold subscriber and would like to use a POP3 client to access and manage your account, you need to designate a new incoming (POP) mail server and a new outgoing (SMTP) mail server. Below are the basic server settings for Excite Email. For more specifics on how to designate new servers on your particular system, please refer to the help pages of your POP3 client.

Incoming Mail (POP3) Server: pop3.excite.com
Outgoing Mail (STMP) Server: smtp.excite.com
Account Name/Login Name: Your Excite Email address (For example, if your Email address user123@excite.com, your login name is: user123@excite.com)
Email Address: Your Excite Email address (i.e. user123@excite.com)
Password: Your Excite Email password
SMTP Authentication: Enable Server Authentication

You do not have to use XPress Mail or Seven Mail V7 Beta if you don't want to.

If you like, you can just configure pocket outlook access the POP mail server directly without using XPress Mail. XPress Mail/Seven mail have additional features to help deliver mail quicker, but if you just want to check mail manually or on a timed schedule, you don't have to use XPress Mail.

To do that, just open the inbox, and create a new account.
