| 3.2.3 Microsoft Outlook
If you are configuring Outlook for the first time, the New Account Wizard will automatically appear the first time you open Outlook.
If you are adding a new account to your existing Outlook installation, click Tools => Accounts... and select "Add => Mail..."
Unless you have already configured another email program to check mail from your new account, select "Do not upgrade."
For "Would you like to configure an email account?" select "Yes."
Select POP3 (unless you would prefer to use IMAP).
On the next screen, enter the following information in the corresponding fields:
Your Name: your Real Name
Email Address: your full email address [username@yourdomain.com]
User Name: your full email address [username@yourdomain.com]
Password: your password
Incoming Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com
Leave the "Log on using Secure Password Authentication" box unchecked.
Once the new account has been setup, you must return to the account Properties. Under Outgoing Mail Server within the Servers tab, the "My server requires authentication" box must be checked. This will enable SMTP-AUTH and allow you to send email successfully.
