How to set up email in Outlook 2000

Outlook 2000 is the email client that comes with Microsoft Office 2000. Here's how you would set it up to read your email from our server.



(1) First click on "Tools" and then click on "Accounts".



(2) Next click on the "Mail" tab and then click on the "Add" button and select "Mail".




(3) Next type in the name you want to be displayed when people receive email from you.

(4) Next type in your email address.

(5) Next type in the server information as shown above replacing with your IP number (example: 208.27.80.142) for both, the incoming and outgoing mail servers.

(6) Next type in the first part of your email address (the part before the @ symbol) and password. If you do not wish for Outlook to remember your password, click off the "Remember password" box.  Click "Next" and then "Finish".

(7) Next, go back to "Tools", then "Accounts" and double-click on the new email address you just set up.  Click on the "Servers" tab and place a check next to "My server requires authentication" (see example above).

(8) Click "Apply" and "OK".  Your email client program is now configured for use with your new email account.
