Here
is how to configure the Microsoft Outlook email client to use with your
Aplus.Net email accounts:
- Open MS
Outlook, and from the Tools menu select Email
Accounts.
- Select the
radio-button next to Add a new email account and
click Next.
- Select the
radio-button next to POP3 and click Next.
- Now, you have
to specify the email account settings. Please make sure to replace
“yourdomain.com” with your actual domain name in
all examples below.
-
Your
Name – type in the name that your recipients will see in the
“From” field of e-mails you send.
-
Email
Address – type in your complete email address.
-
Incoming
mail server (POP3) – type in mail.yourdomain.com.
-
Outgoing
mail server (SMTP) – type in smtp.yourdomain.com.

-
Password
– type in the password for this email account.
-
Log

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:
- Once you have
filled in the above information, click on the More Settings button.
- Select the Outgoing
Server tab and check the box next to My outgoing
server (SMTP)
requires authentication. Select
also the radio button next to Use same settings as my
incoming mail server.
- Now, select
the Advanced tab. Set the Outgoing server (SMTP)
port to 465 and check the box next to This
server requires an encrypted connection (SSL).
- Click OK.
- Finally,
click Next and then - Finish.
