1. To access your control panel [cPanel] go to your http://yourdomain.com/cpanel [simply type /cpanel at the end of your domain name].
2. You will need to login with your username and password from your welcome email. If you need your details resent contact us.
3. Once logged into your cPanel you can setup POP3 email accounts and do much more.
4. You will be prompted for a password when setting up your POP3 account. Make sure you remember the password as you will need it when setting up your new email account in Microsoft Outlook. The password is case sensitive.

How to setup your new email account in Microsoft Outlook

   1. “Your Name”. This is the name that will show up in the “From” line when you email someone. It can be what ever you like it to be.
   2. “Email Address”. This would be the email address you are setting up [The one you already created in cPanel].
   3. “Incoming Server mail server (POP3)”. “Outgoing mail server (SMTP)”. Both the incoming server and outgoing should be set exactly the same. Substitute “yourdomain” in the image below with your actual domain name.
   4. “User Name”. This should be the full email address. *IMPORTANT – Sometimes OUtlook automatically fills the username in for you, but does not input the full email address. Make sure this is correct.
   5. “Password”. Type in the password you selected earlier in the cPanel. This is case sensitive. If you cannot remember your password you can login to cPanel and update it. Apply the checkmark “Remember Password”.

If you see an error message make sure you have a good internet connection by visiting yahoo.com [or similar]. If you do have a good connection and you still see an error that means a setting is incorrect. You can go back to:

> Tools >E-mail Accounts > View or Change Existing Accounts

You should make sure all settings are correct and spelling is correct.
