Important Points

• These instructions assume your email account has already been setup and is collecting email correctly.

• Take a note of any settings you change.

• Only change the items specified - you should not need to change either your email address, POP3 server, POP3 username / password.

• These instructions are only for Microsoft Outlook 2002 - for other email programs please see How To Setup AuthSMTP or contact us.

• We have instructions for both default SMTP port and alternate SMTP port configurations - alternate port is generally used if your ISP blocks the normal port 25 SMTP access (as many do these days!).

Step One

• Load Microsoft Outlook 2002

• From the main screen open the the 'Tools' menu and then select 'E-mail Accounts...'

Step Two

Step Six

• Select 'Log on using'

• Enter the AuthSMTP username and password we supplied when you signed up

• Tick the 'Remember password' option

• Click the 'Ok' button

Step Seven

• Click the 'Next >' button then the 'Finish' button
