Of course, if you go through the trouble of setting up a real e‑mail account, then you will probably want to send/receive mail from that account in your favorite e‑mail program (Outlook (Express), Eudora, etc.). If you use Outlook or Outlook Express you can just click the Mail Client Configuration link next to the e‑mail address you want to set up. This will take you to a screen where you can click on a link to configure either Outlook or Outlook Express with that e‑mail account using either the POP3 or IMAP protocols. Otherwise, you will need to set it up manually.
For any given domain name:
Account/Username: [email protected] OR username+domain.com
Password: the password you set up for that account in cPanel.
Mail Server:
<mail.domain.com>
SMTP Server:
<mail.domain.com>
SMTP Authentication: YES or NO. If you set this to YES (preferred) use password SMTP Authentication and use the same username and password as above...
