Outlook 2003 Email Account Setup

How to setup an email account in Outlook 2003

NOTE: Replace "example.co.uk" with your correct domain name.

To open Outlook 2003 double-click the Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 icon on your desktop

If the E-mail Accounts wizard doesn't launch on it's own, select Tools from the top menu, and E-mail Accounts... from the drop-down list

Select Add a new e-mail account and click Next to continue

On the Server Type screen, select POP3 and then click Next to continue

On the Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) page you will need to fill in your information for each of the six fields. For Your Name type in your name, for E-mail Address type in your e-mail address. In the User Name field type in your user name and in the Password field type in your password.

For Incoming mail server (POP3) type in mail.example.co.uk. For Outgoing mail server (SMTP) type in the information provided by your Internet Service Provider. When each of the six fields have been filled, click the Test Account Settings ... button

If anything shows up as Failed, return to the previous window and double-check your settings.  If you are unable to send the test email, then your SMTP information is wrong or your ISP does not allow relaying.  Please contact us for further advice.

At this point you have finished setting up Outlook 2003 and need to click the Finish button. You may now begin to use Outlook 2003 to send and receive e-mail.
