How
do I setup Outlook Express to send and receive email?
How do I set up mail in Outlook Express to work with my new
mail server?
1.Open "Tools", then "Accounts" then go to the "Mail" Tab
2.Now
click "Add" You will see three options to choose from, pick
"Mail"
3.For "Your Name" type in whatever name you want, then hit
"Next"
4.For
"E-mail Address" type you@YOURDOMAIN.com then hit "Next"
5.For
both Incoming and Outgoing mail type mail.YOURDOMAIN.com then
hit "Next"
6.For
"POP Account Name" type your username, and for "Password"
type YOURPASSWORD, then hit "Next"
7.For
"Mail Internet Account Name" type YOURDOMAIN.com, then hit
"Next"
8.Choose
"I will establish my network connection manually" and hit
"Next"
9.Now
click "Finish"
10.You
should be back in the main "Internet Accounts" window. To
send mail using the new account, you will need to make it
the default account. To do this, just highlight the yourdomain.com
account by clicking on it once, then click "Set as Default"
and Close.
Please
note: "YOURDOMAIN" is your actual domain. "Username" is your
POP account username, "yourpassword" is the password for your
POP account.
I need to configure my mail reading program so I can access
my emails. What are the proper settings?
Assume your domain is fred.com
SMTP
= fred.com
POP = fred@fred.com
From = anyname@fred.com
passwd = the same used for FTP/telnet
