Outlook 2013: Setting up Workspace Email

So you want to set up your email using Outlook® 2013. No problem! We should have your email working in Outlook 2013 in about five minutes. The following process works for most customers, but sometimes, you might need to make some small changes depending on where you live and which ISP(s) you use.

If you follow the steps below and you are unable to send or receive email, see Outlook 2010 and 2013: Troubleshooting Email for additional help.

BEFORE YOU START: To set up Outlook with your email, you need to know your POP or IMAP Email Server Settings and ports. To find them, go to the Email Setup Center and write down the information that displays under Email Server Settings.

NOTE:If you need more information on how to setup an Internet email account, please see Microsoft's support article on the topic here.
