Using Microsoft Entourage with Your Email

You can always use Web-Based Email to send and receive email messages. But you also can view your email with an email client. To access your email through Microsoft Entourage®, add an account with the settings outlined below.

Here's the Lowdown: You can configure Microsoft Entourage 2004 to access the email messages on your email account using POP or IMAP. While exact steps may differ from version to version, these settings are similar in other versions of Microsoft Entourage.

BEFORE YOU START: To set up Microsoft Entourage 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.
