Setting up your Email
Setting Up Email Client - Microsoft Outlook, other mail
Clients
To set up an email client
on your own computer, the basic info you'll need is:
For Incoming Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com.au
For Outgoing Mail Server: your ISP's outgoing mail server
(usual if port 25 is blocked by your ISP for security. If
not use: mail.yourdomain.com.au)
User Name: Your full email
address e.g. you@yourdomain.com.au
Password: Password assigned to the mailbox
Automated Set-up
Only use the automated set-up if
you don't need to use your ISP's outgoing server
- check your ISP's website to see if they block port 25
(the outgoing server port). If so you will need to set-up
your email manually.
Go to the Support
menu item above and click on the Control Panel Access link.
Login using your Control Panel username
and password (supplied at account start-up)
Click on the Mail icon to get to the Mail
Manager Menu
Click on Manage/Add/Remove accounts to
see the accounts
On the right of each email account you’ll
see an Outlook Config file link. Click this to download
a file to automatically set-up your email account on your
computer.

Problem or error message when sending out emails
SMTP authentication: (only
to be used when NOT using your ISP's mail server)
To send e-mails out from our servers you must have SMTP
authentication on. This is to prevent spammers from using
your SMTP server to send e-mails out.
To enable this in Outlook
do the following:
1. Click on Tools > Account settings
2. Select your account and click on Change...
3. At Logon Information click More Settings...
4. Select the Outgoing mail server tab
5. Select "My server (SMYP) requires authentication"
6. Enter your ISP Username and Password
7.
Click Ok
After you have done this you should now
be able to send e-mails out. If you still can't send e-mails
it may be because your ISP is blocking port 25. This means
you should use your ISP's SMTP server as your SMTP servers.
Double check with your ISP to check if they are blocking
port 25 to make sure. It is normally mentioned on their
website.
This should be enough info to setup a mail client
