Updating your POP setting's on Outlook 2016

If your POP mailbox is being upgraded with iONLINE you will be required to change a few settings in your Outlook 2016 mail client. In this guide we will show you how to make the required changes in Outlook. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: iONLINE's new mail servers use your domain name as the server. This means your server will be mail.YourDomainName as an example for both incoming and outgoing mail server settings.

In other words, if your email address is Edwin@testuser.co.za your domain is testuser.co.za, Thus your server will be mail.testuser.co.za. 

How to update your POP settings on Outlook 2016 

1. In Outlook, choose File > Account Settings > Account Settings:

2. Select the email account you need to change, and then choose Change.

3. In the change account window, you will need to update the following details:
   a) Incoming Mail Server: mail.YourDomainName (Replace YourDomainName with your own domain. EG: iONLINE's domain is ionline.co.za so we would put in mail.ionline.co.za)

   c)Password: Insert your new password sent to you by iONLINE.
