- If you have not already created an email address on your server, visit our New User Tutorial: Creating E-Mail Addresses in cPanel.
- If you need to configure your email address in Outlook 2016 for Microsoft Windows, see How To Set Up Email in Outlook 2016. For other mail clients, check out our tutorial on setting up other email clients.
Step #1: Add or Edit the Email Account
- To set up a new email account or edit the settings on an existing one, click the Tools menu and then select Accounts to open the Accounts panel.
- The setup process is slightly different depending on whether you have any existing email accounts configured in Outlook 2016:
- Setting up your first email account: If this is your first time setting up Outlook 2016, you will need to click on the envelope icon next to the third option: Other Email (iCloud, Google, Yahoo!, or other accounts):
- Setting up an additional email account: Once any email account has been set up in Outlook 2016, additional accounts can be added by clicking the plus sign in the lower left corner and selecting Other Email… from the pull-down menu:
- Changing the settings for an existing email account: Click on the account’s name in the account list on the left to make changes to any existing account in Outlook 2016, and skip ahead to Step #4: Editing an Existing Email Account.Note: You cannot edit an existing email account to directly change its connection method. To change an account from POP to IMAP or vice versa, simply add a new account for the email address as described below and select the desired connection type. Outlook 2016 will allow you to have multiple accounts for the same email address, so an account for sample@example.com using IMAP can coexist with an account for sample@example.com using POP. To prevent data loss, do not delete the existing account before adding a new one.
Step #2: Configuring a New Email Account
