How do I setup my Outlook 2002 or 2003 client to get my email?

    1. On the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts.
    2. Click Add a new e-mail account, and then click Next.
    3. Click POP3, and then click Next.
    4. Under User Information, do the following:
      1. In the Your Name box, type your full name the way that you want it to appear to other people.
      2. In the E-mail Address box, type your username, followed by the @ symbol and domain name.
    5. Under Server Information, do the following:
      1. In the Incoming mail server (POP3) box, type 'mail.' where is your domain name.
      2. In the Outgoing mail server (SMTP) box, type 'mail.' where is your domain name.
    6. Under Logon Information, do the following:
      1. In the User Name box, type your username, followed by the @ symbol and domain name.
      2. In the Password box, type your password.
      3. Select the Remember password check box.

*NOTE: You have the option to have Outlook remember your password by typing it in the Password box and selecting the Remember password check box. Having Outlook remember your password means that you won't have to type your password each time you access the account; however, it also means that the account is vulnerable to anyone who has access to your computer.

Use strong passwords that combine uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Weak passwords don't mix these elements. Strong password: Y6dh!et5. Weak password: House27. Passwords should be 8 or more characters in length. A pass phrase that uses 14 or more characters is better. For more information, see Help protect your personal information with strong passwords.

It is critical that you remember your password. If you forget your password, Microsoft cannot retrieve it. Store the passwords that you write down in a secure place away from the information that they help protect.

  1. To verify that your account is working, click Test Account Settings. If there is missing or incorrect information, such as your password, you will be prompted to supply or correct it. Make sure your computer is connected to the Internet.
  2. Click More Settings.
  3. On the General tab, under Mail Account, type ' Mail' where is your domain name.
  4. Click the Outgoing Server tab, and then select the My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication check box.
  5. Click Use same settings as my incoming mail server, and then click OK.
  6. Click Next, and then click Finish.

*NOTES: Do not select the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) check box.
