Setting Up POP3 Email Addresses

Once we have confirmed that we have established the email account on our servers, then you can use the settings below to add that email account to your preferred email client:

Supported Email Clients:

Microsoft Outlook Mozilla Thunderbird
Microsoft Outlook Express MacMail
Microsoft Mail Eudora Mail
Microsoft Entourage KMail

Email Client Settings:

First go to the settings wizard in your email program and create / add a new account:

General Settings:

  • Email Type: POP3
     
  • Display Name: your email display name (e.g. Bob Citizen or ABC Company Pty Ltd)
     
  • Email Address: youremailaddress@yourdomain.com.au (i.e. full email address including @ sign and domain)
     
  • Username: youremailaddress@yourdomain.com.au (i.e. full email address including @ sign and domain)
     
  • Password: yourpassword

  • Incoming (POP3) Server: mail.yourdomain.com.au


Then:

>> for a desktop computer, use the following setting:

  • Outgoing (SMTP) Server: use the mail server of your internet service provider (e.g. mail.bigpond.com - click here for the list of mail servers)

Or:

>> for a laptop computer, use the following settings instead:

  • Outgoing (SMTP) Server: mail.yourdomain.com.au (i.e. same as incoming)

  • In Advanced Settings / More Settings area, go to the advanced tab (or outgoing server tab) and change the number of the port for the Outgoing SMTP from 25 to 587 (do not touch the incoming server which should be 110)
