Sending and receiving email with Outlook


Microsoft Outlook is a personal information manager software system from Microsoft, available as a part of the Microsoft Office suite. Though primarily an email client. We will set up email account test@dynu.biz with Outlook to send and receive emails.

If you use full service email and the domain's DNS is also managed with Dynu, autoconfig settings are automatically set up for your domain so that you do not need to enter the incoming and outgoing server information. At this point, the account is successfully added and you do not need to read the rest of the tutorial.

STEP 2: Set up incoming and outgoing mail server

If Outlook cannot find the mail server information, you may configure it manually. Choose IMAP to continue setup.
