How to Set up Your Email Account in Outlook

 

This tutorial shows you how to set up Microsoft Outlook to work with your e-mail account.  This tutorial focuses on setting up Microsoft Outlook 2003, but these settings are similar in other versions of Microsoft Outlook.  You can set up previous versions of Microsoft Outlook by using the settings in this tutorial.

1.  In Microsoft Outlook, select Tools, then E-mail Accounts.

2.  On the E-mail Accounts wizard window select "Add a new e-mail account" then 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 for your e-mail account. 
 
Incoming mail server (POP3)
Your incoming server is mail.coolexample.com where "coolexample.com" is the name of your domain.
 
Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
Enter smtpout.secureserver.net for your outgoing mail server.

Note:  We use a SMTP relay server which allows 250 emails a day to be sent out per account.  If you require more emails a day you can use the outgoing mail server of your Internet Service Provider.  Contact your Internet Service Provider to get this setting.

5.  Click More Settings.  On the Internet E-mail Settings window, select the "Outgoing Server" tab, then check the box that says ""My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication."

   Select the box that says "Use same settings as my incoming mail server".

6.  Select the Advanced tab and change the "Outgoing server (SMTP)" port to 80.  Click OK.

7.  Click Next

8.  Click Finish.
