Follow the steps below to add an account to Outlook.
Launch Outlook
Select "Tools" from the Menu bar.
Select "Email Accounts" from the Tools menu. The Email Accounts Wizard will appear.
Under the Email heading, select "Add a new email account." Click "Next."
Select server type. We provide IMAP and POP3 email access, IMAP stores your email on the server and is best if you're accessing your messages from multiple devices (a desktop computer and an iPhone for example as you'll see messages on both). Click "Next."
Enter e-mail settings. Fill in:
Your Name - use your full name and use title case (e.g. Jane Doe) as this is how your name will appear when others receive your email
Email Address
User Name (for O'Brien Media email accounts this is the full email address)
Password (established when you set up the email account)
| POP3 | |
|---|---|
| POP3 server | pop3.obrienmedia.co.uk |
| Port | 110 |
| IMAP | |
|---|---|
| IMAP server | imap.obrienmedia.co.uk |
| Port | 143 |
| SMTP (Outgoing Mail Server) | |
|---|---|
| SMTP server | smtp.obrienmedia.co.uk |
| Port | 25 |
Test account settings to make sure your address and settings are working properly. (Note: You must be connected to the Internet to perform this test.) Click the "Test Account Settings." You may need to adjust some of your settings. To do so, click "More Settings." After settings are correct, click "Next."
Note: Some outgoing servers, such as those provided by O'Brien Media, require authentication. To activate this setting:
Click "More Settings"
Go to the "Outgoing Server" tab
Check the box next to "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication."
In most cases select "Use same settings as my incoming mail server" radio button.
Click "OK."
A 'Congratulations' screen will appear. You have successfully entered the required account information. Click "Finish" to exit the email wizard. To add more email address to Outlook, repeat the above steps.
