Setting Up Multiple Email Accounts Using Identities
1. In Outlook Express, click on "File" from the top menu, go down to "Identities" and choose "Add New Identity" from the pop-up menu.
2. A box will appear asking for your (or A) name.
Go ahead and fill one in.
NOTE: There is also an option to put in a password here as well. If you choose to do so, you will have to remember what
this is, or write it down. CMSInter.Net has no way of knowing what this particular
password is after you enter it.
3. Click on the "Ok" button at the bottom of this box.
You will be asked if you wish to logoff and log back on with the new identity. Choose "Yes" for now.
4. Now you will be logged off of your main identity and logged back on with the new identity. The rest of this procedure will
be the same as setting up a mail account.
5. The first box that appears will ask you for a Display Name.
This is where you identify yourself to others, so they know who is sending them mail.
(Example: John Doe) Type in a name and then choose "Next" from the bottom of the box.
6. You will next be asked for you email address.
(Example: user@cmsinter.net)
Type in your email address and then click on the "Next" button at the bottom of the box.
7. This next screen will ask you for the mail server type and the incoming/outgoing mail server names. The Incoming Mail
server type should already be set to "POP3", so you can leave the top line alone.
The other two lines are as follows.
Incoming Mail server: mail.cmsinter.net
Outgoing Mail server: mail.cmsinter.net
After typing this in, click on the "Next" button at the bottom of this box to move on.
8. This next box, will be asking for the Account Name and Password. These are the same as the Username
and Password that you use to connect to the internet. When done filling these in,
click on the "Next" button to continue.
NOTE: There is also a choice below those two fields where you put a check in a box to "Log on using Secure Password
Athentication". You do NOT want to choose this. You will not be able to retrieve your email if this is selected.
9. Finally, we are at the last page. If all the settings are done correctly, click on the "Finish" button to save all the
information correctly.
Now your Outlook Express is configured to manage different Identities.
10. To change Identities simply click on "File" and "Switch Identity", choose the one you want and you are all set.
