    If you have problems setting up your mail program, please contact

E-mail is increasingly replacing regular postal mail. The number of users sending correspondence via the Internet is increasing every day. In this regard, there was a need to create special user programs that would facilitate this task and make receiving and sending email more convenient. One such application is Microsoft Outlook. Let's find out how you can create an electronic mailbox on the Outlook.com email service, and then connect it to the above client program.

Mail registration on the Outlook.com service is done through any browser. Type the Outlook.com address into the address bar of your browser. The web browser redirects to live.com. If you already have a registration record with Microsoft, which is the same for all services of this company, then simply enter your phone number, email address or your Skype username, and click on the “Next” button.

If you do not have an account with Microsoft, then click on the inscription “Create one”.

The Microsoft registration form opens in front of us. In its upper part, enter your first and last name, an arbitrary username (it is important that it is not taken by anyone), a created password for logging into your account (2 times), country of residence, date of birth, and gender.

At the bottom of the page, an additional email address (from another service) and phone number are recorded. This is done so that the user can more reliably protect his account, and if he loses his password, he can restore access to it.

Be sure to enter the captcha to ensure the system verifies that you are not a robot, and click on the “Create an account” button.

After this, an entry appears stating that you need to request a code via SMS to confirm the fact that you are a real person. Enter your mobile phone number and click on the “Send code” button.

After the code has arrived on your phone, enter it into the appropriate form and click on the “Create account” button. If the code does not arrive for a long time, then click on the “Code not received” button and enter your other phone number (if available), or try again with the old number.

If everything is fine, then after clicking the “Create account” button, the Microsoft welcome window will open. Click on the triangle-shaped arrow on the right side of the screen.

In the next window, we indicate the language in which we want to see the email interface, and also set our time zone. After specifying these settings, click on the same arrow.

In the next window, select a theme for the background of your Microsoft account from those offered. Click on the arrow again.

In the last window, you have the option to include an original signature at the end of the messages you send. If you don’t change anything, the signature will be standard: “Sent to: Outlook.” Click on the arrow.

After this, a window opens saying that your Outlook account has been created. Click on the “Next” button.

The user is moved to his Outlook mail account.

Linking an account to a client program

Now you need to link the created account on Outlook.com to Microsoft Outlook. Go to the “File” menu section.

In the window that opens, in the “Email” tab, click on the “Create” button.

A service selection window opens in front of us. Leave the switch in the “Email Account” position, where it is by default, and click on the “Next” button.

The account setup window opens. In the “Your name” column, enter your first and last name (or an alias), under which you previously registered on the Outlook.com service. In the “Email Address” column, indicate the full mailbox address on Outlook.com that you registered earlier. In the following columns “Password” and “Password check”, enter the same password that was entered during registration. Then, click on the “Next” button.

The procedure for connecting to your account on Outlook.com begins.

Then, a dialog box may appear in which you should again enter your username and password for your Outlook.com account and click on the “OK” button.

Once the automatic setup is completed, a message indicating this will appear. Click on the “Done” button.

Then you should restart the application. This will create a custom Outlook.com profile in Microsoft Outlook.

As you can see, creating an Outlook.com mailbox in the Microsoft Outlook application consists of two steps: creating an account through a browser on the Outlook.com service, and then linking this account to the Microsoft Outlook client program.

Outlook is not only an email program, but also a powerful tool for managing your time.

Using Outlook, you can keep a notebook, plan your day, and Outlook will not let you forget about what you have planned and will persistently remind you of it. Notes, a diary, tasks and most importantly the ability to synchronize with mobile devices (for these purposes I prefer the ZEN mp3 player, it is with me much more often than all other mobile things).


And now, in order, about the settings of all this beauty.
The first thing we will configure will be the main function - intercepting and downloading mail.
Go.

We launch Outlook, cancel the automatic configuration, agreeing with all the questions, and go to the menu -
service - next - setting up accounts.

In the window that opens, click create.

Check the box for manual settings and click next.

Place a checkmark in the “Internet email” box. Click next.

Fill in all the fields provided. In the email field, enter your mailbox in full, and in the user field, enter the login with which you entered the mail on the yandex.ru page (or any other, depending on what kind of mailbox we have). In the password field – enter the password for the mailbox. Check the “Remember password” checkbox. And go to the “Other Settings” menu.

Go to the outgoing mail server tab and mark everything as in the following picture.

On the “Advanced” tab, we note in the “delivery” field that we need to leave copies of letters on the mail server. This will prevent emails from being deleted when they are downloaded to your computer.
You can also check the box to enable the function of deleting emails from the server when emptying the trash in Outlook.


Click “OK” and return to the account settings window. It remains to check that the settings are correct. To do this, click the “Account Verification” button. If everything is done correctly, you will see the same window as in the next picture.
