Here
is how to configure the Windows Mail client for Vista
(formerly known as Outlook Express)
to use with your
Aplus.Net email accounts:
- Open Outlook
Express, and from the Tools menu select Accounts.
- Click
the Add button.
-
Now,
select Email Account
and click Next.
- Type
in your Display Name: this is the name that your
recipients will see in the "From" field of e-mails
that you send. Click Next.
- Enter your complete
email address and click Next.
Please make sure to replace "yourdomain.com" with
your actual domain name in all examples below.
- Select POP3
as Incoming e-mail server type.
- Incoming mail
server: mail.yourdomain.com.
- Outgoing mail
server: smtp.yourdomain.com.
- Check the box
next to Outgoing server
requires authentication. Click Next.
Important:
You may also choose to use the SMTP server of your ISP. However, if you
decide to use Aplus.Net’s SMTP server as shown above
(smtp.yourdomain.com), please make sure that the SMTP server is enabled
for the particular email box:
- Enter your
complete email address in the E-mail
username text field and your email account password in the Password
text field.
- Click Next
and then - Finish.
- Now, select your
e-mail account from the list on the left and click on Properties.
- Next, select
the Advanced tab. Set the
Outgoing mail (SMTP) port to 465 and check the box
next to This
server requires a secure connection (SSL).
- Click Apply.
- Finally,
click OK and then - Close.
