To Set Up Your E-mail Account in
Microsoft Outlook
1. In Microsoft
Outlook, select Tools > E-mail Accounts. |
 |
| 2. On the
E-mail Accounts wizard window, select "Add a new e-mail account" and click
Next. |
 |
| 3. For
your server type, select "POP3" and click Next. |
 |
| 4. On the
Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) window, enter your information as
follows: |
Your Name
Enter your
first and last name.
E-mail
Address
Enter your e-mail address.
User Name
Enter your
e-mail address, again.
Password
Enter the
password you set up for your e-mail account.
Incoming mail server (POP3)
Your
incoming server is mail.yourdomain.com, where "yourdomain.com" is the name of
your domain.
Outgoing mail
server (SMTP)
Your outgoing server is
mail.yourdomain.com, where "yourdomain.com" is the name of your
domain. |
 |
| NOTE: "mail.yourdomain.com" is your SMTP server that
comes with your web hosting package. In order to use this server to send
e-mails, you must login to it using the same account username and password as
your incoming server. You can specify this in step 6. If you have trouble
withoutgoing email using your SMTP server with your web hosting package, and
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) allows it, you can use the outgoing mail
server for your Internet Service Provider. Contact your Internet Service
Provider to get this setting. For SBC/AT&T Users the outgoing mail server is
smtp.sbcglobal.net. SBC/AT&T requires you use
their outgoing server in most situations. |
