There are two ways to set up your local mail client to access your email accounts. Auto Configuration If you are using Outlook or Outlook Express, you can have the control panel automatically configure your client for you. To do this, simply enter your hosting control panel, and enter your mail configuration section:
Once in your mail managment section, choose "Add/Remove/Manage Accounts". On the resulting page, find the email account you want to configure your mail client to access, and click "Configure Outlook" Choose "Auto-Configure Microsoft Outlook(or Outlook Express) for POP3 access". Follow the instructions in the pop-up windows. Attempt to retrieve your mail to make sure that it was configured correctly.
Manual Configuration To configure your mail client manually, you must enter your your hosting control panel, and click on "Mail":
Once in your mail control panel, choose "Add/Remove/Manage Accounts". Choose "Configure Outlook" to the right of the email account that you wish to configure your mail client to check. At the bottom of the resulting page, you will find the data required to set your account up manually. Enter this information in the new account section of your mail client and save the data. Check your account to make sure you're able to successfully log into your mail account. |
