In this step-by-step guide, we’ll show you how to set up your WPX Email account with the Outlook mail client<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The information used in this tutorial (such as email addresses, server names, and usernames) is for example purposes only<\/strong>. Please make sure to use your own WPX email credentials and server details<\/strong> when following the steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1. Log in to your WPX account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Begin by logging into your WPX account. You can do this by visiting the WPX login page<\/a>.\u200b<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2. Go to Control Panel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once logged in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Locate your hosting plan in the WPX client area.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Click the Control Panel<\/strong> button next to the plan you wish to manage.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    If you have more than five hosting plans of the same type (WordPress, Agency or WooCommerce), not all may appear on the homepage. Use the WordPress Hosting<\/strong>, Agency Hosting<\/strong> or WooCommerce Hosting<\/strong> tab in the left-hand menu to find your service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Step 3. Get your Email Settings<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    If you\u2019re already familiar with where to find your email settings, you can skip this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Otherwise:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. In the Control Panel, click on Emails<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Then click the Settings<\/strong> button next to the email address you want to configure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Here, you\u2019ll find:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Email server info (incoming\/outgoing servers),<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Email login\/username,<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • The option to change the password (if needed).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        The Incoming and Outgoing mail servers are the same for all email accounts within a given hosting plan. For example, if your hosting server is s24.wpx.net<\/code>, use that for both the IMAP and SMTP server settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        Some older WPX mailboxes use a different username<\/strong> from the email address, depending on your server. Be sure to use the exact email username<\/strong> provided here when setting up your email client.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Step 4. Open Outlook <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Instead of launching Outlook from the desktop icon, go to the Windows Start Menu<\/strong>, type Outlook<\/strong>, and open the app from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        When prompted, enter your full WPX email address<\/strong> (e.g.,test@mail.wpxexample.com<\/code>). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        Select the IMAP<\/strong> option (recommended). If you specifically require POP<\/strong>, choose that instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        Step 5: Enter your Email Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Fill in your WPX email password, then click the Show More<\/strong> toggle to reveal the advanced settings for your IMAP (Incoming) and SMTP (Outgoing) servers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

        Start by entering the IMAP (Incoming) server details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • IMAP Incoming Server: <\/strong>Use the hostname shown under Control Panel \u2192 Emails \u2192 Settings \u2192 Email Server Info (see Step 3).<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Port: <\/strong>993<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Secure connection type:<\/strong> SSL \/ TLS (recommended) <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

          Then, enter SMTP (Outgoing) server details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • SMTP username:<\/strong> Use your email username.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • SMTP password: <\/strong>Use your email password. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • SMTP Outgoing server:<\/strong> The same as the IMAP (incoming) server, the hostname shown under Control Panel \u2192 Emails \u2192 Settings \u2192 Email Server Info (see Step 3).<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Secure connection type:<\/strong> SSL \/ TLS (recommended) <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
            \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Then click the Continue <\/strong>button. Outlook will run a connection test. If successful, your mailbox will be added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            What If you have a different Email Username?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

            If your email username<\/strong> is different from your email address (common with some WPX servers), Outlook\u2019s automatic setup may not work. In that case, follow these manual steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Open the Start Menu<\/strong>, type Control Panel<\/strong>, and open it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Search for Mail<\/strong> and click Mail (Microsoft Outlook)<\/strong>. Choose Show Profiles<\/strong>, then click Add<\/strong> to create a new profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Click on the Add <\/strong>button:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Name the profile (e.g., \u201cWPX Email\u201d) and choose: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Manual Setup or Additional Server Types<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • POP or IMAP<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
              \"\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

              Outlook will run a connection test. If successful, your mailbox will be added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
