Setting up your email in Microsoft Outlook

You have probably been directed here by a member of @voiceofm3 to help set up your email account in Microsoft Outlook.

Just follow the straightforward steps below and we'll have you up and running in no time at all...

To set up your email account in Microsoft Outlook

  1. In Microsoft Outlook, select Tools > E-mail Accounts
  2. Select E-mail Accounts

  3. On the E-mail Accounts wizard window, select "Add a new e-mail account" and click Next
  4. Add a new email account

  5. For your server type, select "POP3" and click Next
  6. Select POP3

  7. On the Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) window, enter your information as follows:

    Your Name
    Enter your first and last name (ex: Cheryl Cole)

    E-mail Address
    Enter your email address

    User Name:
    Enter your email address in again in full

    Password
    Enter the password given to you by Gasp for your e-mail account

    Incoming mail server (POP3)
    Your incoming server is mail.yourdomainname.com When we say 'yourdomainname.com' what we actually want you to enter here is the main web address used for your website, but without the www's. This means if your website is www.thisismygreatwebsite.co.uk then your incoming mail server would be mail.thisismygreatwebsite.co.uk, simple? We hope so..

    Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
    Your outgoing server is mail.yourdomainname.com Same as above - you should be catching on by now ;)

    Click "More Settings."
  8. Tap in your information

  9. On the Internet E-mail Settings window, select the "Outgoing Server" tab.
  10. Select "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication".
  11. Select "Use same settings as my incoming mail server".
  12. Click OK
  13. Use same settings as incoming mail server

  14. Click Next
  15. click next

  16. Click Finish
  17. Click Finish


That's it, job done! If this doesn't work, then your probably best off looking for the nearest child and asking them to set it up for you..
