Configuring email with Microsoft Outlook (Professional Version) |
Candi Best |
Open up your Microsoft Outlook program.
Once your Microsoft Outlook program opens up, you should see a toolbar menu at the very top left of the page: (File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, Actions, Help).
With your mouse or keyboard click on Tools and within the Tools menu click on Email Accounts.
Once you click on Email Accounts you will see an Account Wizard come up. If "Add an email account" is not selected, with your mouse or keyboard, please select it now. Click Next to proceed once you have made this selection.
You will now see "Server Type". Please select POP3 as your server type. After you have selected POP3, click Next.
You will now see the pop up box entitled "Internet E-mail settings (POP3)" and be prompted to enter some information.
User Information :
Your Name: When you send mail, the name you enter in the space provided will appear in the "From" field of the outgoing message.
E-mail Address: Enter the email address you are trying to set up the email account for. (Make sure you have already set up this email in your domain control panel!)
Logon Information:
User Name: Your username should be the name of the email account you are trying to set up. Example: If your domain name is "domain.com" and you are trying to set up an email account for "john@domain.com", you would enter "john@domain.com" in the space provided.
Password: In the space provided enter the password you gave the user when you created the email (pop) account. In the example above you would enter john's password.
Server Information:
Incoming mail server (POP3): In the space provided enter yourdomain.com. Example: If your domain is "domain.com", in the space provided you would enter, "domain.com"
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): In the space provided enter the same information you just entered for the POP3 server. Example: "domain.com".
DO NOT select the box on the left which says "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)". Leave it unchecked.
Click on the "More Settings" button located to the right of "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)".
Now that all the information is filled out in the E-mail Accounts box, click Next.
Congratulations! The congratulations screen should pop up telling you that you have successfully set up your account. To save these settings click Finish.
