Sending mail from outlook to virtual debian

Hello to all!

I have a problem and i would really need your help.
I have virtual debian on my VMware player with already set postfix and dovecot programs so I can send mail from user to user.
Next step is to set outlook express on my physical computer (win xp) to send mail to virtual debian.
I'm a real begginer and noob so...
I can't ping win from debian neither debian from win (is that bad? network adapter on VWware is set to bridged...)
I tried to set outlook's SMTP and POP3 with debians IP address bit it doesnt work.

I dont have any specific question but how to make this work. Smilie

Thank you.
