Outlook 2019 setup for POP and IMAP mailboxes

Modified on Tue, Nov 22, 2022 at 1:40 PM

Setting up your mailbox in Outlook 2019 should take just a few minutes.


This guide shows you how to connect to your mailbox using POP or IMAP.
You can connect to your mailbox using either the POP3 or IMAP protocols. As a rule of thumb, it is better to use POP3 if only one computer or accesses your mailbox, while it is better to use IMAP if you have a number of computers or devices that will access your mailbox.


Step 1
Open Outlook 2019. If this is the first time you have opened Outlook you will be directed to the new account wizard.
If you already have an account set up, click File, then Add account and continue to step 2.

Step 2
When the Welcome to Outlook 2019 box opens, enter your email address and click Advanced options.



Step 3
Check the box for the option Let me set up my account manually and then click Connect.



Step 4
In the Choose account type window, select POP or IMAP.


Step 5



Enter the following settings then click Next:

Incoming mail:
▪ Server: Enter mail.webhero.com
▪ Port: 995 for POP

▪ Server: Enter imap.webhero.com
▪ Port: 993 for IMAP
▪ Encryption method: SSL/TLS
▪ Require logon using Secure Password Authentication (SPA): Unchecked

Outgoing mail:
▪ Server: Enter mail.webhero.com
▪ Port: 587
▪ Encryption method: SSL/TLS
▪ Require logon using Secure Password Authentication (SPA): Unchecked
▪ My outgoing (SMTP) server requires authentication: Checked
▪ Use same settings as my incoming mail server: Checked


Step 6


Enter your mailbox password, then click Connect.

Complete!


Your account should now be set up and ready to use, click OK to close the wizard. Outlook 2019 is now configured to send and receive email through your mailbox.
