The reason you need to know your ISP's SMTP server is that mail is always
sent out through this server.
You can generally find this information on the help/support pages for your
Internet provider. You can also ring your provider's help line and request
the information. However, if you're in a hurry, the fastest way to find this
information is to find it in your current Email account in Outlook Express.
1. In Outlook Express, select Tools:
Your screen should now look like the picture above
2 Select “Accounts”
3: Click on the ‘Mail’ TAB, followed by the entry that reads ‘mail (default)’
Your screen should now look like the picture above
4: click on 'Properties':
Your screen should now look like the picture above
5. Look in the box labeled 'Outgoing mail (SMTP)'
This is the name of your SMTP server (given to you by your ISP). Write it down. You will need it later. This is the only information you need to gather.
Press 'Cancel' (you're not making any changes here)
Please return back to the section: “Setting up for POP3” (Page 8), or “Setting up for IMAP”
