Setting Up Your Email in Outlook XP or 2003

Not using Outlook XP or 2003?  Click here for Outlook Express settings.  For any other clients, visit our general settings page

1. In Outlook, select Tools followed by Accounts.

2. Select Add a new e-mail account and click Next.

3. Choose POP3 from the list click Next.

4. Fill in all information as requested on this page.  Verify that your User Name is your full e-mail address.  Also, verify that your Incoming and Outgoing mail server are both mail.dfwair.net.  Commonly if you are experiencing initial problems receiving e-mail, you will find that the server names have been mistyped.

Hit the More Settings button.

5. Click on the Outgoing Server tab and check the box that says "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication."  Then click OK.

6. This will bring you back to the screen seen in step 4.  Click Next.

7. Click the Finish button. Your account should now be active and accessible within Outlook.  If there are any difficulties, verify that all steps have been followed closely.  A mistype in any of the fields will cause errors.  If you are still experiencing problems, you may want to try restarting the computer and trying again.  If still after that step you are unable to check your email, then give us a call.
