Microsoft Outlook XP and 2003 Setup

The following instructions will guide you through configuring Outlook XP or Outlook 2003 to access your TRLinks Mail Account:

1. Open Outlook. On the menu bar, click on Tools and then choose E-mail Accounts from the Tools menu.
   
   
2. In the window that appears, choose Add a new email account OR View or Change Existing Account. Click on the Next button.
   
   
3. In the next window, you are prompted to choose the type of server you will be connecting to. Choose POP3 and click on the Next button.
   
   
4. In the next window, you need to enter the following information:
   • Your name: Your real name
   • Your e-mail address: Your full email address, ie: joeuser@123widgets.com
   • The incoming mail server: Set this to mail.123widgets.com (replace this with mail.yourdomain.com )
   • The outgoing mail server: Set this to mail.123widgets.com (replace this with mail.yourdomain.com )
   • NOTE: Due to problems with various ISPs (Internet Service Providers) you may not be able to connect to and thus use 'mail.123widgets.com' as your outgoing mail server on the standard email port. This is an issue beyond our control. ISPs known to have issues are AOL, COX, Verizon, Earthlink, Verio, Netzero, MSN, Mindspring, SBC, Yahoo and others. If you tried setting your outgoing mail server to 'mail.123widgets.com', followed step 6. and were unable to send mail due to a connection error then please see the optional step in step 6.
   • User Name: Enter your full email address, ie: joeuser@123widgets.com
