This tutorial assumes you've already created your new email account in your web hosting account..... typically through your hosting control panel.

 

Now let's learn how to setup that new email account in Outlook 2003, so you'll be able to send/receive emails to/from that new email account from here.

 

1) Start by clicking on Tools.

 

2) Then click E-mail Accounts

 

The Email Accounts window appears

 

3) Click Add a new email account

 

4) Then click Next

 

5) Choose POP3.

 

6) Then click Next

 

7) Enter the Name as you would like it to appear in the From field of outgoing emails

 

8) Then enter your new email address.

 

9) Now enter the email username as provided to you by your hosting provider..... this may be the entire email address (john@demo1234.com), or just the username prefix (john)

 

10) Then enter your email password.

 

1) Now enter your Incoming (POP3) and Outgoing (SMTP) server settings in these boxes

 

12) Click Next

 

13) Click Finish to complete the wizard

 

That's it! We've successfully setup an email account, and can now start sending and receiving emails to and from that account, from Outlook 2003
