Microsoft Outlook Set up
If you wish to send and receive e-mail on your domain's server, you will need to configure your e-mail software to do this.
The instructions below are for the later versions of Outlook, older versions generally require the same procedure and information although the exact menu positions and button names may vary slightly.
First you must open Microsoft Outlook and click on the Tools > E-mail Accounts... option from the toolbar.
Then choose E-mail: Add a new e-mail account and click on Next.
Select server type POP3 and then Next.
Add all your information as provided in your account details or welcome email. Take care to enter your Account name and Password carefully, they are normally case sensitive and Passwords will often contain numbers too. Particularly watch out for 0 (zeros) and O (ooo's). You will normally want to ensure that the Remember password option is ticked so that you don't have to type it every time you Send & Receive. Please remember though that then any user of your PC will be able to collect your emails, if you don't want this you will normally have to uncheck the box.
Then when completed as below, click on More Settings...
To allow you to send emails as yourdomain.com you must no enter some additional information. Select Outgoing Server from the tabs across the top.
Tick the option that says "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentification" and check the default option which should be "Use the same settings as my incoming mail server" (If not make that the current selection), then finish up by OK, Next then Finish.
You should now be setup to collect and use your new email account.
