-
Open Microsoft Outlook 98 and
choose "Tools" from the menu bar.
-
Choose "Accounts" and click on the
mail tab when the "Internet Accounts" manager window appears.
-
Click on
the "Add" button and then on "Mail". The Internet Connection Wizard will walk
you through the setup process.
-
First, it will ask for a display name.
Normally your mail has these headers:
to:
bob@aol.com
from: joe@xyz.com
Choosing a display name of "Robert G. Davis" will result in
these headers on your outgoing mail:
to: bob@aol.com
from: Joe Doe <joe@xyz.com>
-
Next, the wizard asks for your email address
that you want people to reply to. Typing joe@xyz.com here would result in the
above headers on your outgoing mail.
-
Next you are asked for your server
information. Your incoming mail server is a POP3 and its name is your domain
name (e.g. xyz.com). Your outgoing mail server is yourdomain.com (e.g.
xyz.com)
-
Next is your account name on our system.
Then enter your password.
-
Next, it will ask for an
account name that Outlook 98 will use to refer to this particular account, you
can choose whatever you want but we recommend something like "My Pebblehaven
account" or "My Domain Email".
-
If you log onto your ISP
and then check your mail, choose "I will establish connection manually". If you
want Outlook 98 to dial into your ISP for you, then choose "Connect using my
phone line". If you choose the latter, you will need to contact your ISP for
instructions on configuring your dialer.
-
Click
on "Finish" and then on "Close".
-
Now to retrieve your mail, in the Outlook 98
window, choose "Tools" from the menubar.
-
Then select "Send and Receive".
