Configuring Ms Outlook.This is a complete set of step-by-step instructions for configuring the Outlook Express e-mail client
program for use with your domain hosting or extra mailbox account. The procedure is similar for Outlook and key differences will be mentioned. If you are simply forwarding mail sent to your domain to another email address then you do not need these instructions.

Locate mail accounts. Start the Microsoft Outlook Express program as normal.
We are assuming that the program is already configured with the settings specified by
your ISP. The program should start with your default identity configuration. The first
action is to create a new account for your domain's mailbox. From the
Tools menu, select the Accounts option as indicated by the
red arrow. If you are using Outlook instead of Outlook Express, go to 'Tools'->'Services' instead of 'Tools'->'Accounts'.

Add a new mail account A new window entitled
Internet Accounts appears on top of the main program window. The Mail tab

Add button. A menu should drop down next to the Add button. Click on the Mail
option as indicated by the red arrow to begin the setup process. If you are using Outlook instead of Outlook Express, choose 'Add' from the 'Services' window and then choose 'Internet E-mail' and then hit 'OK'.
