Access Your Email
via Microsoft®
Outlook®
You will need to configure your mail program
to log into our mail servers. We have described below how to setup
Microsoft Outlook to access and send your mail. The discussion below
should also be useful for other mail software, as most mail programs require
basically the same information.
New Hosting Clients and New Domains:
Please note that although your account exists on our server you won't be
able to receive email at you@yourdomain.com until InterNIC has finished
processing your domain name registration or modification or name server
information. This is only applies to new accounts or new domains.
