How to setup Outlook Express

Please follow the instructions below to setup Outlook Express to send and receive email from the Cozahost servers:

First, open Outlook Express and click on the "Tools" menu option. Then select the "Accounts..." menu option.

Outlook Express will now display a list of all the different accounts you have.

Now click on the Add button and select the Mail... option

Create a new mail account

Enter any name (as you would like your name to appear in email you send) in the Display name field and click the Next button.

In the "E-Mail address" field, enter a valid email address (you can add more email addresses when you login on here).

Now click the Next button.

In the "Incoming mail server" area enter mail.cozahost.com

In the "Outgoing mail server" block, also enter mail.cozahost.com

Now click the Next button.

In the Account name area, type the user id as supplied by Cozahost.

In the Password area, type the password as supplied by Cozahost.

Make sure the "Remember password" box is ticked and press the Next button.

Click the Finish button, but there is one more thing to do...

In Outlook Express, click on the "Tools" menu option and then select the "Accounts..." menu option again.

Select the account we just created (click on the "Mail" tab first to make it easier to find) and then click on the Properties button.

Click on the "Servers" tab and then tick the box next to "My server requires authentication"

This is a very important step. You will not be able to send email unless you do this.

Note that "Logon using secure password authentication" must not be ticked.

Now press the Ok button, and then press the Close button to return to Outlook Express.

Congratulations! You configured your email account!
