Setting Up Your E-mail in Microsoft Express
1) Open Outlook Express, go to the "Tools" menu (if you get other pop-up screens when opening Outlook Express, click the cancel button next to them until you can click on the "Tools" menu), and click on "Accounts..."
2) When the "Internet Accounts" window appears, click on the "Mail" tab. Click and hold on the "Add" button, moving your pointer over the "Mail..." label and release the mouse button.
3) The "Internet Connection Wizard" dialog starts, begin filling out the information it asks for: First, the name you want to appear on all your e-mails you send to people.
4) Then enter in your E-mail Address (ex. john@yourdomainname.com):
5) Next, enter the e-mail server information as is shown below:
6) Now, enter your email and password for your e-mail account (you don't need to put in the password, but if you do, it will be automatically sent to the e-mail server everytime you connect to it so long as the check is in the box next to "Remember Password"):
7) You should end up at this window, so click "Finish":
8) Now we are back to the "Internet Accounts" window, and you should see the account we just created appear there (make sure you're still on the "Mail" tab if it does not):
9) Click once on the account you just created, then click on the "Properties" button, you will see a window appear titled "john@yourdomainname.com Properties" that has many tabs along the top. Click on the one that says "Servers". Verify that your settings are the same as in the image below.
10) In that same window, click on the "Advanced" tab, and adjust the settings to reflect the settings in the image below:
Outgoing mail (SMTP): 80
11) You are finished. Hit ok twice and your email is ready to go.
