How do I access my domain E-mail using such programs as Outlook Express, Outlook, or Eudora?

POP e-mail programs such as Outlook Express, Outlook, Netscape Messenger, or Eudora requires the following information to access your domain E-mail (where yourdomain.com is your domain hosted at Netfirms):

E-mail Address: yourname@yourdomain.com
Incoming Mail Server (POP): pop.yourdomain.com (port 110)
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.yourdomain.com OR your ISP's smtp address (port 587)
POP Account Name: e-mail@yourdomain.com
Password: Your WebMail Password
My (SMTP) Server Requires Authentication: this should have a check mark in the check box

NOTE: Verizon customers should be aware that their ISP is securing their network and restricting SMTP access - Port 25 on Verizon is no longer supported: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2009/02/verizon_to_implement_spam_bloc.html. This is the case for many other ISP's as well. Please check with your ISP for further details.

Should you encounter problems with sending email out using smtp.yourdomain.com, you may be required to use your ISP's smtp server. Please refer to the following information: Using your ISP's smtp server to send email.
