How to configure an email account in Outlook Express





Description

Create your new email account in your web hosting account, typically from cPanel.
  • Click on tools link and choose Accounts option from there. You will see Add button on right hand top corner. Click Add button and choose the option of Mail from it.
  • In the next window, enter the name, as you’d like it to appear in From field of outgoing mails. Click on Next button.
  • Enter email address in the text box and click Next button.
  • In this window, enter the Incoming (POP3) and Outgoing (SMTP) server names. These server names are provided in your welcome email, provided by host. Click on next button.
  • Put the user name and password, as provided by the hosting provider. Click on next button.
  • The process is almost finished but we have to configure our email properties. Select the email account just created. Click its properties button and change the email name to some recognizable name. Click on server tab and check SMTP authentication box. SMTP authentication assures that Outlook Express will login to your email server, even when sending emails, ensuring that emails are sent by you only. Click on Apply button.
  • Click Ok
Email account is successfully set up.
