The best part about being a Roadrunner email account user is that you can set up this account on Microsoft Outlook and check all your email in one place. Once you’ve set up your account on Outlook, you won’t be required to sign in to your Roadrunner email to access your email, as you can do this using Outlook. Alternatively, if you have multiple Roadrunner accounts, you can add them all to Outlook for ease of use.
