How to Set Up Email in Outlook

 

Please note: Some users may have a different variation of Microsoft Outlook, so take in consideration that when you are going through these instructions to set up your email account there may be variations in the text.  Some of the options we have listed below may not be listed in the version of Outlook you are using. Please call our offices for assistance at 612-623-8054.

 

1. Open Outlook, make sure you are in the Mail section.

 

2. Go to Tools. Scroll down and select E-mail Accounts (in some versions of Outlook it will say “Accounts”)

 

3. Then select “Add a new E-mail Account”

 

4. Select “POP3” as the Server Type

 

5. Next you will be brought to the Internet E-Mail Settings page.

 

a. Username Information:

 i. Your Name: Enter the Name of the Account Holder

 ii. E-Mail Address: Enter ENTIRE email address. Ex. Nicoleb@esultants.com


b. Logon Information:

 i. User Name: Enter the ENTIRE email address again, exactly how it was provided.

 ii. Password: Enter the password. *Remember this Password must match the password that is entered into the Webmail server. If they both do not match, the E-mails will not be able to come through.

 

c. Server information:

 i. Incoming mail server (POP3): email.esultants.com

 ii. Outgoing mail server (SMTP): email.esultants.com

 

d. Then hit the Next Button

 

e. It should give you a message that the account was made. If not, go back and try to figure out what is missing.

6. Go to “Tools” and scroll down to “Email Accounts” again.

 

    1. Select “View or change existing E-Mail Accounts”
    2. Then select the Account that was just made or being edited.
    3. Go to “More Settings”
    4. Click on the “Outgoing Server Tab”
    5. Make sure the “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication.” Is selected.  If this is not selected the user will be unable to send their E-Mails.
    6. Go to the “Advanced” tab and double check that the incoming server (POP3) is set at 110 and the outgoing server (STMP) is set at 25.

 

7. Once these settings have been updated then their E-Mail should be ready to go.
