How to Manually Add and Configure Outlook IMAP settings?

The majority of web hosting services provide a certain number of email accounts or boxes. Even if you don't have a website yet, having an email-only account with the host firm allows you to obtain a domain name and use it for your email. Free email accounts like google lack the professionalism that domain-based email addresses give for you and your workers. You'll need to add your email addresses to an email application like Microsoft Outlook to check and manage your email once you've picked your email addresses and set them up with your domain's hosting firm. To add an account to Outlook and configure Outlook IMAP settings, follow the instructions below.


How to Add Email to Your Outlook

  • Select Tools from the E-mail Accounts menu in Microsoft Outlook.

  • Select Add a new e-mail account from the E-mail Accounts wizard box, then click Next.

  • Select POP3 or IMAP as your server type, and then click Next.


Fill in the following information in the Outlook IMAP settings (POP3/IMAP) window:


Your Full Name

Your given and given names.

Address e-mail

Your email address is required.

Username

Here's your email address once more.

Password

Your password for your email account.


Incoming mail server (POP3): Pop.secureserver.net or IMAP: imap.secureserver.net

Smtpout.secureserver.net is the outgoing mail server (SMTP).


After you have added your email to outlook next comes the part where you configure it. To know more about it scroll down a little…
