Set Up Using Automatic Configuration

• 1). Access "Account Settings" from the Outlook 2007 Tools main menu tab. Select "Email" and then select "New" to open the "Add New Email Account" window. Select the "Choose Email Service" option titled "Microsoft Exchange, POP3, IMAP, or HTTP" and then click "Next" to open the "Auto Account Set Up" window.
  
  
• 2). Enter your full name, email address and password information, then click "Next." Outlook 2007 will attempt a connection to your email server and if successful will configure your email account automatically. Wait for a confirmation message that tells you the process is successful and complete. If Outlook cannot complete the process automatically, you will need to configure accounts manually.
  
  
• 3). Click "Finish" and then "Close" to complete the email account set up.
  
  

Set Up Using Manual Configuration

• 1). Follow the instructions to open the "Auto Account Set Up" window and place a check mark in the box at the bottom of the window that reads, "Manually configure server settings or additional server types." Text fields in the "Auto Account Set Up" window will gray out and the "Next" button will become active. Click "Next" to proceed to a new "Choose Email Service" window.
  
  
• 2). Select the "Internet Email" option and click "Next" to move to the "Internet Email Setting" window.
  
  
• 3). Enter required information to include your name and email address, server type, incoming and outgoing mail server addresses, and your log-on information. If you want Outlook to store your password, check the "Remember password" box at the bottom of the screen.
  
  
• 4). Perform a test to ensure Outlook can log into your email server by selecting the "Test Account Settings" button. Outlook 2007 will connect to the email server and send a test message. If the test is successful, you will receive a confirmation message in your Outlook email and if not, a message box will alert you that an error occurred.
  
  
• 5). Click "Finish" and then "Close" to complete the email account set up.
  
  

Choose Email Delivery Options

• 1). Select "Options" from the "Tools" main menu tab and then select the "Mail Setup" tab.
  
  
• 2). Select the "Send/Receive" button and locate the section that reads "Setting for Group-All Accounts."
  
  
• 3). Place a check mark in the "Schedule an automatic send/receive every" box and decide how often you want Outlook 2007 to check for new email messages. If you prefer to check for messages yourself, make sure the check box is clear. Click "Close" and then "OK" to close the "Options" window.
