do I configure the Outlook Express email program with my Surfanytime
email address for Windows?
1. With Outlook Express opened, go to the Tools menu and select Accounts option. Once the dialog box opens, click on the Mail tab at the top, and then click the Add button to the right of it. This will start the Internet Connection Wizard, which will take you through the process for setting up Outlook Express. 2. In the first box, you will be asked for your name. Enter it as you would like it to appear on outgoing mail, such as your First and/or Last Name, and then click the Next button. From there, you will be asked to enter your email address. For this, input your address in the format youremailname@surfanytime.net, replacing "youremailname" with your specific name. Click the Next button. 3. The next dialog box will prompt you for the Email Server Names. At the top, make sure that it says My incoming mail server is a POP3 server. For Incoming mail (POP3) server, input the following: mail.surfanytime.net For Outgoing mail (SMTP) server, input the following: smtp.surfanytime.net Click the Next button. 4. The next dialog box will prompt you for your Internet Mail Logon. Make sure that Log on using: is selected and enter your username in the POP account name as yourname@surfanytime.net. Enter your password in the Password: field. Please make sure these are input exactly as they were indicated in your Surfanytime confirmation letter, due to case-sensitivity. Click the Next button. 5. You will then be asked for a Friendly Name, which would be the name for the mailbox you just created in Outlook Express' list of accounts. Input the word Surfanytime here, or whatever else you would prefer. Click the Next button. 6. The next dialog box will ask how you're connected to the Internet. Please select Connect using my phone line. Click the Next button. 7. In the next dialog box, click the Finish button. You should now see your entry in the list of accounts. Click the Close button. Checking Email With Outlook Express Once you have configured Outlook Express, you can check your incoming mail messages by clicking the Send and Receive icon in the toolbar, or by going to the Tools menu and selecting the Send and Receive option. Sending Email With Outlook Express To send a new message, click on the Compose Message icon in the top toolbar, or by going to the Compose menu and selecting New Message option. You will then see a composition window in which you can enter the recipient's address in the To: field, the subject of the message in the Subject: field and the body of your message. When you are done putting your message together, click the Send icon in the toolbar of the message window, or by going to the File menu and selecting Send Message option.
