Setting up Email Account with Outlook Express 5:

Your domain name MUST be active before your Email service will work. If your website comes up in the browser, then your Email service will work as well.

  1. Open Outlook Express 5
  2. Go to "Tools" and click on "Accounts"



  3. A "Internet Accounts" window will pop up. Click on "Add", the click on "Mail".


  4. This will start up Internet Connection Wizard. Enter your name where it says "Display name:" and click "Next" at the bottom right.



  5. Enter your Email address in the input box. This does NOT have to be your "username@yourdomain.com"( you can use "john@yourdomain.com, webmaster@yourdomain.com, etc). Then click Next.



  6. In the Incoming mail (POP3…) field type mail.yourdomain.com
    In the Outgoing mail (SMTP)… field type mail.yourdomain.com
    (so if your domain name is ipayout.com, then you would put "mail.ipayout.com" there)    . Click Next.



  7. To check your master mail account, put in the username and password that is in your Account Setup letter. If you are checking another POP account that you've created in the members area, you MUST use the usename that was signed to you. (the username name for the additional POP accounts should start with numbers, ie. 1241.david).



  8. OK, click Finish and you're done!
