The Tutorial below will give you an idea on how to setup your POP3
email program to work with our email servers. If you are only using
our email aliases to forward mail to your existing email provider, then
there is no need to reconfigure your email program.
Q: How do I configure my email program so I can read my POP3
email?
A: First, make sure you have established a POP3 user account.
To create a POP3 Account in your email server:
- Go to your control panel at: http://www.hostinglogin.com/
- enter your Username and Password and click "login"
- in the
EMAIL
ACCOUNTS section click on "Manage Email Accounts"
- click on "POP3 Accounts" and "Add" Icon to create
the account of your choice
Now you are ready to configure your email program to read your POP3
account
This is the basic procedure for 1) setting up, 2) editing,
and 3) testing a New Email Account in Outlook Express using our SMTP
Mail Server - Note: Your Internet
Service Provider may require these modifications
1) To create a POP3 account for "sales"
on Outlook Express, follow these steps:
To set up a new mail account on Outlook Express (or Microsoft
Outlook):
1) Open up Outlook Express (Start >Programs >Outlook Express)
2) Click on the "Tools" menu from the top of Outlook Express
and choose "Accounts"
3) From the new window click the "Add" button on the top right
and choose "mail"
4) type in "sales" for the Account
Name (this can be changed later) and click "next"

5) in this window (Yes you have an email account)
type "sales@yourdomain.com" and
click "next"
Note:
"yourdomain.com" is just an example, always replace it with
Your Domain Name

6) In this window type "mail.yourdomain.com"
in both the Incoming & Outgoing boxes, click "next"
Note:
Your Internet Service Provider may require these modifications
7) Now type in "sales@yourdomain.com"
for the Account name, and "testing"
for the password . . .
Important: Normally you would let us know the Account Name and
Password to set up on your server. . .
in this example we are using "sales@yourdomain.com"
and "testing" for the
password.
Note: you should not have to check the
box that says "Log on using Secure Password Authentication"

8) Hit the "next" button and then the "finish" button
to create your account
2) To make changes to your POP3 account for "sales"
on Outlook Express, follow these steps:
Now lets do a quick Edit - the "Internet Accounts"
Window should still be open . . . if not - Click on the "Tools"
menu from the top of Outlook Express, and choose "Accounts" from
the pull down menu
- Select the account "sales@yourdomain.com"
in your list of email accounts by clicking on it
- Click the "Properties" button
That will bring up a window that will look like the picture below
- Now you can change your Account Name, add in your Name, Organization,
& Reply Address.
These are example settings for the "General" Tab
Note:
"yourdomain.com" was an example, it should now show Your
Domain Name
Now Click on the "Servers" tab to bring up this window
 |
The Outgoing mail (SMTP) settings
are using Our email servers . . .
Note: Your ISP may require using
their email server for outgoing mail.
