If you experience trouble connecting to your email account using Outlook and Outlook Express, check your email account settings. One of the more common causes of connection problems is that the account may be established as an IMAP-based account, instead of a POP3-based account. Your settings should be:
- Incoming mail server (POP3) - pop.secureserver.net
- Outgoing mail server (SMTP) - smtpout.secureserver.net
Also, make certain you are entering your full email address (for example, name@coolexample.com) for your user name.
