Setting up Email Account with Outlook Express:
1. Make sure your domain name loads. If it
doesn't load your your email account wont work.
2. Make sure you have setup your email accounts
at yourdomain.com/cpanel
You are now ready to begin
setting up your email accounts.
-
Open Outlook Express
-
Go to "Tools" and click on "Accounts"

-
A "Internet Accounts" window will pop
up. Click on "Add", then click on "Mail".
-
This will start up Internet Connection
Wizard. Enter your name where it says "Display
name:" and click "Next" at the
bottom right.
-
Enter your Email address in the input box.
This does NOT have to be your "username@yourdomain.com"(
you can use "john@yourdomain.com, webmaster@yourdomain.com,
etc). Then click Next.
-
In the Incoming mail (POP3…) field
type mail.yourdomain.com
In the Outgoing mail (SMTP)… field
type your internet/broadband providers SMTP
server name. This may be
smtp.comcast.net or smtp.choiceone.net. If
you are not sure ask what they use. ONLY if
your acces provider tells you they do not
allow domain name email would you use
mail.yourdomain.com (so if your domain name
is elitepolls.com, then you would put "mail.elitepolls.com"
there). Click Next. Also
note if you do use
mail.yourdomain.com for outgoing you must
also check the box, my outgoing server
requires authentication. (Incoming
does not need this checked)
-
Now type in your username that you have
setup from cpanel using the following
format: "yourusername@yourdomain.com"
-
Just
click Finish and you're done!
