This guide takes you step-by-step through the process of setting up a new email account in Microsoft 365’s Outlook for Mac.
Replace example.com with your domain name.
Add your mail account
Launch Outlook
Select the Outlook tab, then Preferences and then Accounts
A new window will open which will list any other accounts already set up
If there are no accounts listed, click the Add Email Account button. If there are already accounts, click the ‘+‘ button at bottom left and then Add New Account…
Enter your email address then click Continue
On the next window, be mindful of Microsoft 365 defaulting to Exchange. Select Not Exchange at top right to deselect this as we do not support exchange mailing on our hosting environment.
Select POP/IMAP
Enter the settings relevant to your mail account
POP or IMAP (choose IMAP if you want to access your mail on more than one device e.g. laptop and cell phone)
Email address and User name are both your full email address eg. [email protected]
Incoming Server name: mail. followed by your domain name e.g. mail.example.com*
Incoming server Port: 993 (IMAP) or 995 (POP)
Outgoing Server: mail. followed by your domain name e.g. mail.example.com*
