Setting up your EMail Account in Microsoft Outlook

These instructions will help you to set up your new E7systems generated eMail account.

If you prefer you may watch an instructional video of new email account setup.

These instructions document the basic steps in connecting to the mail server, sending and receiving messages.

These instructions may be difficult for new computer users to follow. They may also be slightly different for different versions of Outlook. I suggest that you use application help, some educated guessing and finally the E7systems support resources in navigating these instructions. Good luck and welcome aboard.
