Email Set-up For Outlook Express (PC)

Step 1

Click on tools then accounts from the top bar.

Step 2

Click on Add and then Mail from the internet accounts box.

Step 3

Enter your name and then click on Next.

Step 4

Enter your e-mail address and click Next.

Step 5

Select the type of mail account as "POP3".

Enter the mail server as mail.yourdomainame ie. if your domain name was mydomain.co.uk then the mail server would be mail.mydomain.co.uk.
Enter the SMTP address (send mail server) of the ISP you will be using to access the internet, you may be able to find this from the existing accounts you have set-up in this software or by contacting your ISP (their FAQ pages may be a useful place to start).

Alternatively you can use your domains server, just enter your domain name without www. However, this is not as reliable as your internet providers STMP address.

Eg. mydomain.co.uk

Step 6

Enter your email address and the password for that mailbox then click on Next.

Once back at the Internet Accounts Box, Choose Properties.

Server Authentication

Choose the Servers tab. Under the Outgoing Mail Server section, place a checkmark next to "My server requires authentication".

Note: The default setting for server authentication is to use the same settings as your incoming mail server. Therefore, you will not need to change anything in the settings for server authentication.

Step 7

Click on Finish.
