Directions for setting up your e-mail account on your computer
Open Outlook (or Outlook Express).

Go to tools/accounts/add/mail.

A dialog box will open.

Fill in the blanks as follows:

Display Name: whatever you want people to see in the "from" box of an e-mail from you

next

The e-mail address you have set up with our service:  username@yourdomain.com

next

Incoming mail server is a POP3 server:

mail.yourdomain.com

Outgoing mail server is an SMTP server:

mail.yourdomain.com

next

Account name:  username@domain.com

Password:  your password (ensure you have the proper case selected)

Note:  Have the program remember your password or not, depending on your preference.

next

Fill in applicable connection information (if the window pops up)

Finish

Close

You're done!

To test this, click on send/receive

The program will go to the mail server, log in and retrieve messages on the server (if there are any there).  Then it will send any messages you have pending.  You should not receive any error messages if your domain transfer is complete.

 

Need more addresses?   If you would like to add more e-mail addresses of mail forwarding, this can be done for a nominal charge.  You can use your domain-name service as your main business e-mail.  Contact Web Strategies to arrange this service.
