Your incoming (POP3)and outgoing (SMTP) mail servers should both be set to mail.yourdomain.com, where yourdomain.com is your e-mail domain name. Under incoming mail server, you must enter your full e-mail address for the Account name, and your password. If you are the sole user of your PC, we recommend checking the "Remember Password" checkbox. If you share your PC with other users, we strongly advise against checking this setting as other users will have access to your e-mail account.
