Microsoft Outlook

This page provides instructions for configuring Microsoft Outlook 2000 and 2003 to retrieve your account e-mail.

1. From the Tools pull-down menu select the Accounts option.
2. Select the Mail tab.
3. Select Add and then Mail from the list provided.
4. Follow the instructions provided by the wizard. Some tips are provided below:
   
   

• Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server
  This is typically your domain name, for example yourcompany.com.
• Select either POP3 or IMAP
  If you are unsure which to select, we recommend you select POP.
• Outgoing mail (SMTP) server
  This is typically your domain name, for example yourcompany.com.
• Account Name
  This should be your e-mail user name, for example bob for an e-mail address of bob@yourcompany.com.
• Password
  This is the password you associated with the Account Name above.
5. Check the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) Box
6. Click More Settings.
7. Check the My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication box. Use the same settings as your incoming mail server for SMTP-Auth.
   
   
8. On the Advanced tab, if you are unable to send mail you may need to change the Outgoing server (SMTP) port number from the default of 25 to 587. Many Internet providers block port 25 in an attempt to prevent infected PCs from sending virus e-mails. It will not hurt to always set this port to port 587.
