Using Microsoft Outlook 2003 with Your Email
You can always use Web-Based Email to send and receive email messages. But you also can view your email with an email client. To access your email through Microsoft Outlook®, add an account with the settings outlined below.
This article focuses on setting up Microsoft Outlook 2003, but these settings are similar in other versions of Microsoft Outlook. You can set up previous versions of Microsoft Outlook by using the settings in this tutorial.
Before You Start:
You need the names of your incoming and outgoing servers to set up email with a client. Web-Based Email contains this information.
- Log in to Web-Based Email at email.secureserver.net.
- From the Help menu, select Email Client Settings.
- Make a note of your incoming and outgoing server information.
- Continue with the procedures outlined below to set up your email client.
To Use Microsoft Outlook 2003 with Your Email
- In Microsoft Outlook, select Email Accounts from the Tools menu.
- On the Email Accounts wizard window, select Add a new e-mail account and click Next.
- For your server type, select IMAP or POP3, and then click Next.
- Complete the fields for the Internet Email Settings window, and then click More Settings.
NOTE: smtpout.secureserver.net is an SMTP relay server. In order to use this server to send emails, you must first activate SMTP relay on your e-mail account. For more information about activating SMTP Relay, see Checking your SMTP Settings.
- On the Outgoing Server tab, select My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication.
- If you did not change the SMTP relay section, select Use same settings as my incoming mail server. If you changed the user name and password in the SMTP relay section of your Manage Email Accounts page, select "Log on using" and enter the user name and password. The example above assumes you did not change your SMTP relay section in your Manage Email Accounts page.
- On the Advanced tab, set the following.
- Incoming Server port
- IMAP without SSL - 143
IMAP with SSL - 993
POP without SSL - 110
POP with SSL - 995 - Outgoing Server (SMTP) port
- Without SSL - one of the following: 25, 80, 3535
With SSL - 465
- Click OK.
- Click Next, and then click Finish.
