Setting up Email Account with Thunderbird

Empire Elements accepts no responsibility for the set up of Outlook Express or Outlook 2003; along with many other web sites we simply provide helpful information.

We ask that you check you have done the following BEFORE contacting us if further help is required:

  • Check you are using the domain name provided to you by your ISP.
  • Check you are using the correct pre-fix as provided by your ISP. For example  info@ or Mail@ or Server@
  • Check you have not used .com when you should be using .co.uk
  • Check your own email address and password are entered correctly
  • Check CAREFULLY the spelling of every word. For example have you used an i instead of an l
  • Check that you have not typed lll when you only meant to type ll. With some letters this is hard to notice.
  • Check CAREFULLY the correct punctuation is used. For example have you inserted a comma (,) instead of a full stop (.)
  • Check you have chosen the correct server type. For example hotmail is usually HTTP and will not work if set up as POP.
POP downloads your email to your local computer. By default, you will only be able to read your downloaded messages from that computer. If you need to access all your email from different computers, you may want to choose IMAP instead.
