Select 'Mail Servers' in the Category bar and then type in:
- For the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server, we recommend
that you use your ISP's SMTP Server since this configuration works
best. Most ISP's offer an SMTP Server free with their dial-up
service and all you need to do is call them to find out what that
SMTP Server name is.
If your ISP does not offer an SMTP Server (like
AOL), then you can use your domain name as the Outgoing Mail (SMTP)
Server. But, when using your domain name as the SMTP server,
you must always check for mail before being allowed to send mail
(POP before SMTP).
- Then hit the 'Add' button in the Incoming Mail Servers section

- Your domain name in the 'Server Name' field
- Select POP3 Server in the 'Server Type' drop down
- The username of the mailbox you want to check mail for.
- Check the box next to 'Remember password'.
For example, if you wanted to check mail for username@yourdomain.com,
you would put in the information as illustrated below.
