Configuring your
Microsoft Outlook Express Email Client
Activating your email account:
Before you proceed in configuring your email client, make sure
you have created all your email accounts through your web based
control panel under Mail.
After configuring
and activating your email account, you may then proceed to
configure your email client (eg. Eudora, Netscape Messenger,
Outlook or Outlook Express).

Select
POP3 for you incoming mail server.
In the
Incoming Mail (POP3 or IMAP) Server field, enter the POP or
mail server that was given to you. For example: If the domain
you registered is "www.yourdomain.com" then your incoming mail
server would be "mail.yourdomain.com".
In the
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server field, we highly recommend using
the outgoing or SMTP server of your Internet Service Provider
(ISP). The reason is because you should experience faster
performance from your own ISP. In some cases, you will not be
able to use your ISPs SMTP server for sending out emails.
If you are
using our SMTP servers please be sure to set your outgoing mail
server to "mail.yourdomain.com" from within your email program.
Click on
Next to proceed.

Enter the
password you use to register in your web based control
panel.
Click on
Next to proceed.

Next to finish configuring your email account.

Click

able to send and receive email in Microsoft Outlook Express.
