Click the "Next" button.
The "Your Name" box is for the name

For E-mail Address enter your full email address (example: myname@mycompany.com)
Your mail server address will be mail.redtowertech.com
for both the incoming and outgoing mail server.)
Enter Your "User Name"
Enter your password into the "Password" box.
Put a check in the "Remember" password box.
Click on the "More Settings..." button

Enter your email address in the "Reply E-mail" box.
Click the "Outgoing Server" tab.
Put a check in "My outgoing server (SMTP)
requires authentication" .
Select the option marked "Use same settings as my incoming
mail server" .
Click the "Connection" tab.
Select your connection method: If you are on
a network, select "Connect using my local area network
(LAN)" . If you use dial-up - select the "Connect
using my phone line" option.
If you select the Phone-Line option, make sure that the bottom
box under "Modem" has your current ISP's connection.
(If not, click the little arrow at the far right of that box
to choose your ISP's connection.)
Click "OK."
Click the "Test Account Settings..."
button.
Outlook 2002 will check to see if it can connect

actually reach your ISP's mail server and logon. Lastly, it
will send a test message to see if everything is working.
