E-MAIL SETUP INSTRUCTIONS - OUTLOOK

If using the Wizard setup or the instructions below, you will need to know these four things in advance:

  • User Name: name.yourdomain (name as used in the first part of your e-mail address, the part before @)
  • Password: ****** (the password we assign) - The password can be changed to any password you want to use, but we need to change it on the server to match - so let us know if you need to change it.
  • Mail Servers: mail.wordwebdesign.com. Use this for both the incoming & outgoing mail servers (POP & SMTP)
  • Ports: Incoming will default to 995 when you check the box for server requires SSL. Outgoing needs to be manually set to 587 - This is an advanced setting under Account Properties. Choose STARTTLS for the type of encryption.

E-mail accounts are 'standard' POP3 accounts. Please contact us for setup on Microsoft Exchange Servers, or for IMAP options.

Note these directions are for one of the newer versions of Outlook. Older instructions are also available: Outlook 2010-2013, and the older Outlook Express.

Choose POP3 for the Account Type. Set both the Incoming and Outgoing Mail Server fields to mail.wordwebdesign.com. The User Name field under Logon Information should be set to your email prefix, a period, and your domain (ex.: test@mycmlc.com becomes test.mycmlc), with your password in the field below it. Also, check the Remember Password box. Then, in the bottom-right hand corner, click More Settingsā€¦

STEP 9

Click Next on the POP and IMAP Account Settings. A window titled Test Account Settings will come up to make sure that your provided information is correct. Note: sometimes the test will fail even when you entered everything perfectly! This is a bug in the Outlook connection profile. If you receive an error telling you that you cannot connect, close the window with the Close button and try testing again. If after three tests it doesn’t work, ensure your provided information is entered correctly (password mismatch, email spelling error, etc.)

If the test was successful, you’ll be taken to a final page telling you your account is up and running. Click Finish.

You’ll be taken to the main page where you can now begin using your new setup email account!
