This article helps you configure Microsoft Outlook 2003 to work with your eMerchantClub e-commerce Web site.

Instructions

Step 1

Open Microsoft Outlook

On the Tools menu, select E-mail Accounts…

In the E-mail section, click the radio button “Add a new e-mail account” and then click the  button.

On the Server Type menu, select the radio button for POP3, and then click the  button.

On the Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) window, enter the name you would like your e-mail recipients to see in the Your Name box, and your Web site’s e-mail address (the one your customers send an e-mail to) in the E-mail Address box.

Enter mail.yourdomain.com (with your Web site’s domain name in place of yourdomain).  (e.g., mail.fredsgifts.com) into both the “Incoming mail server (POP3)” and the “Outgoing mail server SMTP)” boxes.

Your User Name should be the username for your Site Manager login, which may be different than your Web site’s contact e-mail address.  The Password is the same password you use to enter your Site Manager.

Click the  button, then click the  tab, check the box titled “My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication” and then click the  button.

To make sure the information you entered is correct, click the  button.  If you entered correct information, it should respond, “Congratulations!  All tests completed successfully.  Click Close to continue.”  Click  and then .

If testing the account settings causes an error, double-check the information you have entered.  Make sure that the user name and passwords are correct, and that your domain name is entered correctly.  If this still generates an error, please contact technical support for further assistance.

If the information you entered is correct, you should see a Congratulations screen informing you that you succeeded in setting up the account.

Click the  button.
