Follow these simple steps to set up your e-mail in Outlook
Express.
- Open
your Outlook Express, either by clicking the Outlook Express
icon on your desktop or selecting "Read Mail" from the
Mail menu in Internet Explorer.
- In
Outlook Express, select "Accounts..." from the Tools menu.
- On
the pop up menu, select the "Mail" tab.
- Click
the "Add..." button and select "Mail..." This will bring
up the Accounts Wizard.
- Fill
in your name as you would like it to appear in the "From"
notation on e-mails you send. Click Next.
- Make
certain that "I already have an e-mail address I'd like
to use" is selected. Enter your e-mail address. Click
Next.
- You
must now let the wizard know what servers to access when
receiving and sending your mail. Fill in the spaces as
shown with the following information:
Server
Type: POP3 Server
Use the following server
names based on your domain name.

Outgoing
Server Name: (same as incoming)
Click
Next.
- This
screen will set up your login information. In the Account
Name box fill in your user name, and below it, your password.
This will save your login and password in your Outlook

each time.

Finish will take you back to the Accounts setup screen.

If you do not use Lonetree as your Internet provider you
must do this following step. Click the Account you
just created and choose the Properties button. Choose
the Servers tab at the top of the new window that popped
up. At the bottom of this window check the box that says
"My server requires authentication." (If you
do not choose this box you will not be able to send mail
using our mail servers.)
- Click
the apply button.
You
can now select Close to close the window.
You
can now check your e-mail by selecting "Read Mail" from
your Mail menu in Internet Explorer.
