How to Set Up Outlook for Windows to Send and Receive Email
- Open Outlook.
- Select Yes from the Account Configuration window.
- Click the Next button.
- Select POP3 as your Server Type.
- Click the Next button.
- In the Your Name field, type your name.
- In the E-mail address field, type your full email address (e.g., johndoe@yourdomain.com).
- In the Incoming mail server (POP3) field, type your Incoming mail server (POP) (e.g., mail.yourdomain.com).
- In the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) field, type your ISP's Outgoing mail server (SMTP) (e.g., mail.your-isp.com).
Note: You can use mail.yourdomain.com as your outgoing mail server, but it is highly recommended that you use your ISP's outgoing mail server to send messages. Not only will it transmit the messages to the server faster, but if you use mail.yourdomain.com for outgoing messages, you will be charged for bandwidth usage.
- Click the Next button.
- In the User Name field, type your email account name (e.g., johndoe@yourdomain.com).
- In the Password field, type your email password.
Note: Your password is case sensitive! Make sure CAPS LOCK is off when typing it.
