Set up your email account in Windows Live Mail


The following instructions describe in detail how to create and Set up your email account when using Microsoft Outlook 2007. The instructions included here are easy to follow and can be used for setting up emails (mail servers) provided also by other web-hosting providers.

1. From Start choose Windows Live Mail (it is assumed that you have used this program before so as the Internet Connection Wizard is not initiated).
2. Then go to Tools > Accounts
 



3. Click Add which is the first button on the right.
 



4. On the next window that appears select the check box at the bottom Email Account and then click Next.

  • Your Name
    Enter your name, your nick name, or your company’s name depending on how you want to be displayed when you sent an email.

    Enter your e-mail address (in the example we are creating an email account for an imaginary email: user@yourdomain.com.au).


  • Account Type
    Should be POP3 (this is the default option).

    Your incoming server is mail.mydomain.com.au, where mydomain.com.au is the name of your domain.
