How do I set up Outlook Express to
download my email? |
|
|
|
It's quite simple. Just follow these steps: |
- Open Outlook Express. It can usually be
found on your desktop, in your start menu, or on the
Quick Launch toolbar to the right of the start menu.
- Open the Tools menu, and click "Accounts."
- Click "Add," and then choose "Mail."
- On the first screen, type your name as you would
like it to appear on all outgoing email messages.
Click NEXT.
- Type the email address provided to you on the
second screen. (Typical format is john.doe@antiochministries.net.)
Click NEXT.
- Ensure the drop-down menu at the top of the
third screen shows "POP3." If it doesn't,
change it. Then, for both the incoming mail
server AND outgoing mail server, type
mail.antiochministries.net. Click NEXT.
- On the fourth screen, your account name will be
the same as your email account EXCEPT you should
replace the "at" (@) sign with a "plus" (+) sign.
(For example, john.doe+antiochministries.net.)
Type your password in the second box. (If you
want Outlook to automatically log on to your email
when started, check "Remember Password." If
you wish to type your password in every time Outlook
starts, UNCHECK "Remember Password.") Check
the box at the bottom of the screen, and click NEXT.
- All you have to do on the fifth screen is click
FINISH. Your email account is now set up and
ready to use. Choose OK or FINISH on all
windows until you reach the main Outlook Express
window, and then click "Send/Receive."

You can test your email by sending yourself an email
message. If it shows up in your inbox, then you
have correctly completed setup of Outlook Express. |
