| Outlook comes standard on most Windows systems equipped with the Microsoft Office Suite. It has many capabilities beyond checking email, however, we will leave that to our clients to discover for themselves should they so desire. Here are instructions on how to configure Outlook to check your email account through Modoweb. |
| |
| 1. From your Tools menu, select Email Accounts. |
|
|
| |
| 2. In the E-Mail Accounts menu, select Add a new e-mail account and click Next. |
|
|
| |
| 3. For Server Type, select POP3 and click Next. |
|
|
| |
| 4. In the Internet E-mail Setting (POP3) menu, you will enter in your name, your email address (where yourdomain.com is the domain that you signed up for), the User Name and Password that you were assigned by Modo, and Incoming and Outgoing mail servers (which are both in the form mail.yourdomain.com, where yourdomain is the domain you signed up for). After filling out this information, click on the More Settings button. |
|
|
| |
| 5. Under the General Tab, give your email account a name; this may be any name you wish. Next, click the Outgoing Server tab. |
|
|
| |
| 6. In the Outgoing Server tab check the box next to My Outgoing server requires authentication, leave the radio button checked next to Use same settings as my incoming mail server. Next, click on the Connection Tab. |
|
|
| |
| 7. Leave the radio button checked next to Connect using my local area network if you are using a DSL or Cable connection, otherwise select Connect using my phone line if you are using a modem connection. Next, click the Advanced tab. |
|
|
| |
| 8. In the Advanced tab, change the Outgoing server setting from 25 to 198. Click OK to continue. |
|
|
