Set-up/Change Outlook Express:

Outlook Express - to set up a new mail account.

There is an online tutorial that will show you step by step how to do this. We would recommend using this as you can set up your email as it goes along (it can be paused). Click here to view that tutorial.

The settings you would need to know are your incoming POP and outgoing SMTP which are the same: mail.yourwebsite.com for each and your email address is: YourEmail@YourWebsite.com with the password being what you selected.

• Click TOOLS
  
• Then click ACCOUNTS
  
• Click the MAIL tab.
  
• Click ADD, then MAIL
  
• Under "Display Name" enter your name as you would like it to appear to people receiving email from you.
  
• Click NEXT
  
• Enter the email address of: YourEmail@YourWebsite.com
  
• Click NEXT
  
• My incoming mail server is a POP3 server (that is the default)
         Incoming mail (POP3): mail.yourwebsite.com
         Outgoing mail (SMTP) mail.yourwebsite.com
  
• Click NEXT  
• Account name: YourEmail@YourWebsite.com  
   Password: YourPassword (all lowercase)  
• Make sure there is a check in REMEMBER password
  
• Click NEXT
  
• Click FINISH
  

Now you need to set up the correct properties for the account.
You will see an account that says mail.yourdomain.com
Highlight that and click PROPERTIES
Give the account a name - something you will recognize it by (you can even leave it what it is).

• Click the SERVERS tab
  
• Under OUTGOING MAIL SERVER you should check where it says:
          MY SERVER REQUIRES AUTHENTICATION.
  
• Next to that option click where it says SETTINGS.
  
• Click the box that says "Log on Using" and enter account name: YourEmail@YourWebsite.com and your password (all lower case).
  
• Check the box that says: REMEMBER PASSWORD
  
• Click OK
  
• Click APPLY
  
• Click OK
  
• Click CLOSE
  
  

That will set your new mail account up so you can now pull mail into and send mail from Outlook Express.
