BACK TO EMAIL SETUP MAIN

Follow the steps below to setup your email in Microsoft Outlook

 

In Microsoft Outlook, select Tools > E-mail Accounts.

On the E-mail Accounts wizard window, select "Add a new e-mail account" and click Next.

 

For your server type, select "POP3" and click Next.

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 given by o5webdesign for your e-mail account.
Incoming mail server (POP3)
mail.yourdomain.com (where yourdomain is your own domain name)
Outgoing mail server (POP3)
if your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is NOT Mweb, Iburst, Vodamail or Polka - you can use the same as the incoming mail server. If it IS one of the above, you need to contact them to get the correct outgoing SMTP mail server.

 

On the Internet E-mail Settings window, select the "Outgoing Server" tab.

Select "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication."

If you did not change the SMTP relay section, select "Use same settings as my incoming mail server". If you changed the user name and password in the SMTP relay section of your Manage Email Accounts page, select "Log on using" and enter the user name and password. The following example assumes you did not change your SMTP relay section in your Manage Email Accounts page.

 

Select the "Advanced" tab and change the "Outgoing server (SMTP)" port to 80 or 3535.

Click OK.

Click Next.

Click Finish.

You're ready to send your first e-mail!
