Setting Up Outlook Express
1. Open Outlook Express.
2. Click on the "Tools" option at the top.
3. Select "Accounts" from the list.
4. When the window appears, click on the "Mail" tab at the top.
5. Click the Add> button
6. Type in your name as you would like it to appear when other people receive email from you. In most cases, you will want to type your first and last name.
7. Select "I already have an email address that I'd like to use, and type your email address into the field below.
8. Select POP3 as your incoming mail server type from the drop-down box.
9. Your incoming mail server will be mail.yourdomain.com and your outgoing mail server will also be mail.yourdomain.com (i.e. for us it would be mail.cleartide.co.uk)
10. Click next and you will then be asked for your username (or Account Name) and password. Your username will normally be exactly the same as your full email address i.e. yourname@yourdomain.com - your password is CaSe sensitive, so make sure you use capitals correctly. You can tick the box that says "Remember Password". But DO NOT tick the box next to "log on using SPA".
11. After clicking Next and Finish you will return to the list of your Internet Accounts, which should now include the one you've just added. Click that once to highlight it, then click the "Properties" button on the right.
12. A new window will pop up, with a series of tabs running along the top. Under the "Servers" Tab, select "My Server Requires Authentication" then click the "Settings" box next to it. Another new window will pop up, click the button that says "Use same settings as my incoming mail server". Click Ok, then Apply/ok until you return to the Internet Accounts window. Click close and you're ready to go.
N.B. If you have multiple accounts setup on the computer, you may need to manually specify which account to send messages from. To do this, just create a new message, and select which account to send that message from using the drop-down box that appears underneath the subject field. For more information see the help documentation within the application.
