Some cable
companies will not allow you to SEND email
from your website's mail server
so the recipient receives your
message showing that it is from
yourname@yourdomain.com
You can work around this by making the following changes
in the settings in the email program on your computer.
Open
your Outlook or Outlook Express
email program, and click on
TOOLS and click ACCOUNTS.
Select
your default email account
and click the PROPERTIES button.

Click
on the SERVERS tab and change
the name of your OUTGOING SMTP
mail server to the name of
your cable internet provider's
mail server and click the SETTINGS
button. Leave the incoming
Mail Server ACCOUNT NAME associated
with your website domain name.

Click
the LOG ON USING radio button
and enter the name and password
with the email
address associated with your
Cable provider (not your
website email address).

Once the
settings shown above have
been configured,
email sent
from this account will arrive
in the recipient's
inbox,
coming from your
email address at
your website
domain. |
