These instructions show you how to set up Microsoft Outlook Express to work with your personal email address. These instructions are for setting up Microsoft Outlook Express 6, but these settings are similar in other versions of Microsoft Outlook Express; and you can set up previous versions of Microsoft Outlook Express by using the settings in this tutorial.

- Select the "Mail" tab in the Internet Accounts window and click
"Add."

NOTE: "smtpout.secureserver.net" is an SMTP
relay server. In order to use this server to send e-mails, you must first
activate SMTP relay on your e-mail account. Log on to your Manage Email
Accounts page to set up SMTP relay. If you do not have SMTP relay set up and
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) allows it, you can use the outgoing mail
server for your Internet Service Provider. Contact your Internet Service
Provider to get this setting.

Click Next.
