How do I set up email in Outlook and other mail clients?

[amansker]

It is a simple matter to add your new email account to Outlook or other email application. These instructions are specific to Outlook, but contain information for other applications as well. The sample screens use the domain manskerconsulting.com.

QUICKSTART
user: full email address
pw: *****

SMTP Server - outgoing email: mail.yourdomain.com
POP Server - incoming email: mail.yourdomain.com

Outgoing (SMTP) mail server requires authentication (leave "same as incoming server")

Some ISP providers (yahoo, Earthlink, etc.) will require you to change your SMTP Port to 26.

OUTLOOK SETUP DETAILS
