How do I configure Microsoft Outlook 2007?

Here is how to configure the Microsoft Outlook 2007 email client to use with your email accounts:

Open MS Outlook 2007, and from the Tools menu select Account Settings.

Click the New... button.

Check the box next to Manually configure server settings or additional server types and click Next.


Now, you have to specify the email account settings. Please make sure to replace “yourdomain.com” with your actual domain name in all examples below.

User Information:

Your Name – type in the name that your recipients will see in the “From” field of e-mails you send.

Email Address – type in your complete email address.

Server Information:

Incoming mail server (POP3) – type in mail.yourdomain.com.

Outgoing mail server (SMTP) – type in mail.yourdomain.com.

 Logon Information:

User Name - type in your complete email address.

Password – type in the password for this email account.

Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) – do not check this box.


Important: You may also choose to use the SMTP server of your ISP.

Once you have filled in the above information, click on the More Settings button.

Select the Outgoing Server tab and check the box next to My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. Select also the radio button next to Use same settings as my incoming mail server.

Now, select the Advanced tab. Set the Outgoing server (SMTP) port to 587.

Important: If you leave your computer running at home/office and wish to access your email online (web-mail) it's a good idea to leave a copy of the message on the server for 1 day. Just make sure to select "Remove from the server when deleted from 'Deleted Items.'"

  

Click OK.

Finally, click Next and then - Finish.
