Setting up an Email Account

To setup your account you need to know the following information:

• the user name you've been given to access your email
• the password you've been assigned
• email address, i.e. yourname@yourdomain.com (or .org, etc)
• the incoming mail server (POP3) which is mail.jcsecure.com
• the outgoing mail server (SMTP) which is mail.jcsecure.com

The following screen shots illustrate the process of setting up an email account for your domain in Outlook 2003.  Other email clients will use the same settings.

 Step 1 - Choose POP3 as the Server Type

 

 Step 2 -Enter the user information

• Your name as you wish it to appear
• your assigned email address
• Your assigned User Name
• Your assigned password
• Incoming mail server (POP3): mail.jcsecure.com
• Outgoing mail server (SMTP): mail.jcsecure.com

 

 

Step 3: Click on More Settings... and choose the Outgoing Server tab.  Click on "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" and see that "Use same settings as my incoming mail server" is selected.

Step 4 Click on Test Account Settings - this will open a window that shows the progress of 5 steps that result in a test message being sent to your account.  If the test is sucessful, close the window and click on Next to finish the setup.  If not sucessful, close the window, check your settings and try the test again.
