Outlook Express - Windows

1. Choose Accounts from the Tools menu. The Internet Accounts window will open.

2. Click the Mail tab. This will show you any e-mail accounts that are currently set up in Outlook Express. Click the Add button. A menu will pop up: choose Mail.

3. The Account Setup Assistant will start. In the Display Name field, enter your Full Name as you would like it to appear to people who receive your emails; then click Next to continue.

4. Next, enter your Email address in the E-mail address field. Click Next to continue.

5. Set the Incoming Mail Server type as "POP3" and for the Incoming Server, use incoming.mightymerchant.com. Do NOT use a prefix like "pop" or "smtp".

6. Next, enter the outgoing mail server or SMTP server. If you know the outgoing mail server from your local ISP, you should be able to enter that. If your local ISP's outgoing server isn't working or you are not sure what is the address of their mail server, then enter outgoing.mightymerchant.com.

6. Click Next to continue.

7. Next, type your User Name in the Account ID field. This is your
entire email address (ie, yourname@yourdomainname.com). You may enter your password in the Password field and place a check in the Remember password box. This will permit you to check for email without having to enter your password every time.

8. Click Next to continue and then "Finish".

9. The Internet Accounts window will now display. Double-click your account to open it and then click the Servers tab.

10. Check the box at the bottom that says "My server requires authentication". Then click OK. Note: If you are not using outgoing.mightymerchant.com as your outgoing/SMTP mail server, check the box only if your local ISP has instructed you to do so.

11. To test your account, send an email message to yourself and check your mail to see that you can successfully receive it.

If your email comes through successfully, you should be all set.
