To configure Outlook Express , Windows Mail, Outlook 2000 or Outlook 2002 (windows):

THESE INSTRUCTIONS ASSUME YOU USE VZINET to CONNECT to the internet and BOTH your incoming and outgoing servers say mail.vzinet.com. 

IF YOUR PC DOES NOT CONNECT through VZINET OR your incoming or outgoing mail servers are NOT mail.vzinet.com - make a note of everything your email client says!  If you change the wrong field for another email provider or ISP provider, we can not help you resolve that!  The best suggestion is to write down the information before you change it.  You would typically ONLY need to change the information relative to mail.vzinet.com.

1. Open Outlook or Outlook Express.
2. Click the 'Tools' menu, and select 'Accounts...'
   
   
    
3. Click the 'MAIL' tab, select your account on the left and then click 'Properties'
4. Select the Server TAB -  Enter pop.gmail.com in the 'Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP) server:' field.
5. Enter smtp.gmail.com in the 'Outgoing mail (SMTP) server:' field.
6. Click the 'Advanced' tab.
7. Check the box next to 'This server requires a secure connection (SSL)' under 'Outgoing Mail (SMTP).'
8. Enter 465 in the 'Outgoing mail (SMTP):' field.
9. Check the box next to 'This server requires a secure connection (SSL)' under 'Incoming mail (POP3).'
10. The port will change to 995, if it does not - type in 995.
    *The order of 'Outgoing' and 'Incoming' mail server fields varies by version. Make sure you enter the correct information in each field.
    
    
    
     
11. Click 'OK.'
12. You may be asked to re-enter your password the first time you send or receive email - just type in the password as we've indicated to you in previous correspondence!

Congratulations! You're done configuring your client to send and retrieve messages.
