SETTING UP EMAIL ACCOUNTS IN OUTLOOK EXPRESS

 

 

*Please be aware that some service providers (i.e. MSN) require that when you connect to the internet through their service you may not use a 3rd parties' servers to send out email. Please follow the steps below  but if you find that outlook will not allow outgoing email, this is probably the case and you will need to contact your service provider for outgoing mail server settings.

 

 

Open Outlook Express, Click on the Tools menu and select Accounts

 

 

 

 

 

Click on the Mail tab Then Click on Add and select Mail

 

 

 

 

 

In Display name type the name you want people to see. then Click Next

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In E-mail address, add the email address that you want people to reply to

(i.e. yourname@richmondcountycc.org) then Click Next

 

 

 

 

 

Make sure the incoming mail server is POP3

In Incoming Mail, type mail.yourdomain.com 

In Outgoing Mail, type mail.yourdomain.com
Then Click Next

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In Account name type the username

(username is your email address, i.e. yoy@yourdomainname.com)
In Password type the password (Default password is "welcome")

(See "Web based mail & options" to change passwords)
Click on remember password (optional) then Click Next

 

 

Click Finish

 

 

 

 

 

One more step...

Click on the Tools menu and select Accounts

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select the mail account that we just configured then select
the properties tab on the right of the screen.

 

 

 

 

Next, we will select the servers tab at the top of this section, and we will confirm that
the incoming mail server is set to mail.yourdomain.com and the outgoing mail server is
specified as mail.yourdomain.com, you will next ensure that your account name reflects
the combination of your userid and domain name so in your case
your_username@yourdomain.com
  Ensure that you have your complete username
and domain name there.  Not just username. 

VERY IMPORTANT!  If you desire to also send mail out thru this server,
you will also place a check mark in the
"My server requires authentication" in the Outgoing Mail Server area.
Once checked, select Settings.
 See image below.

check  "Use same settings as my incoming mail server"
