How do I receive and send outlook emails?

Dear Tom McNeill1,

Thanks for using Microsoft products and posting in the community.

Create and send an email message

1.At the top of the page, select New message.

2.On the To line, enter the name or email address of the person who will receive the message.

Note: When composing a new email and clicking the To or Cc buttons, some customers will not see their list of contacts. This is a known issue. To be able to select names, simply start typing on the To or Cc line, and your related contacts will be shown.

3.On the Add a subject line, enter a brief description of what your message is about.

4.To attach a file **** to your message, select Attach.

For more information about attaching files to your message, see Attach files in Outlook.com.

5.Type your message and then select Send.

You can see more information about it in this link:  Create, reply to, or forward email messages in Outlook.com - Microsoft Support
