How do I configure Outlook Express to get emails from my domain?

After setting up your POP3 account in the Plesk control panel, proceed as follows.

Step 1: Open Outlook. Click on Tools and choose E-mail Accounts.

Step 2: Click on View or change existing E-mail accounts and click Next.

Step 3: If you attempted to create any E-mail accounts but were unsuccessful, you can remove them from here. Otherwise, click Add.

Step 4: Choose POP3 and click Next.

Step 5: For User Info, type your name and full E-mail address. For Logon Info, type your full E-mail address as the username, and your password.

Step 6: For Server Info, type mail.domainname.com for both SMTP and POP3. If you are unable to connect to the SMTP server, your ISP may be blocking port 25 from 3rd party use. Contact your ISP if this occurs.

Step 7: Do not click Test Account Settings. Simply click Next.

Step 8: Your account will be shown in the list of E-mail accounts configured in Outlook. Click Finish.

Step 9: In Outlook Express, click Send/Receive.
