To use Microsoft Outlook 2007 to check and send mail from your St. Edward's University account you will need to setup your incoming and outgoing mail servers.

You will be setting up Outlook to use Secure POP to check your email and to use a process called "authenticated SMTP" to send your email. Secure POP encrypts your password for a higher level of security. Authenticated SMTP means you can use a St. Edward's University mail server (smtp.stedwards.edu) to send email from your computer from any location instead of using your RoadRunner, SBC or other service's outgoing mail server. Note that some Internet Service Providers may require that you use their outgoing mail server.

To setup Microsoft Outlook 2007 to use the St. Edward's Mail Servers from any location:

1. Open Outlook and click on the Tools menu and select Email Accounts.

2. Make sure under the Email the “view or change existing e-mail accounts” is selected and click on “Next.” If you are prompted to automatically set up your account, click on the box in the bottom left corner to "Manually configure server settings".

3. Click on the New button on the E-mail tab.

4. Choose the E-mail Service by clicking on Microsoft Exchange, POP3, IMAP or HTTP. You will be using POP3 at St. Edwards. Click on Next.

5. Enter your Internet E-mail Settings.

• Your E-mail Address will be your St. Edward's login@stedwards.edu.
• The Account Type will be POP3.
• The Incoming mail server is mail.stedwards.edu.
• The Outgoing mail server (SMTP) is smtp.stedwards.edu.
• Enter your User Name and Password.
• Check the box to the left of "Require logon using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)."

6. Next, click on More Settings…

7. Select the Outgoing Server tab and check the box “My outgoing mail server (SMTP) requires authentication.” Click on the Log on using section and enter your User Name.

8. Select the Advanced tab and check the box under under Incoming server (POP3) that states “This server requires a secure connection (SSL). The port will automatically change to 995.

In the drop down box to the the left of "Use the following type of encrypted connection:" select TLS.

If you wish to leave a copy of your e-mails on the server, check the box and also select the box to the left of Remove from server after ___ days. It is recommended that you remove mail from the server on a regular basis so that you do not exceed your mail quota (100 MB for students and 200 MB for faculty and staff).

9. Click on Ok to save these settings.

10. Click on Next and then Finish.
