Hello Everyone!

When you enter in professional career, Microsoft outlook is one of the tools you need to know how to use. Before starting to use outlook, the first problem you can run into is not knowing how to set up your E-mail account in MS outlook. In different versions of MS Office, there are different ways of setting up the account. They are quite similar but slightly different and if you learn one version, you can surely do the same in other versions of MS office as well. 

Here I have put up a tutorial for setting up your own E-mail account in MS office 2007. Please follow the step to step guide and you will succeed in setting up account in the end.

Step 1: 

The first step is to click on the Tools icon on the Ribbon

Step 2: 

The second step is to go to the Account Settings option in the tools. It should pop up a window. 

Step 3:

In third step you have to choose New in the Pop Up window. Which should Pop up another window. 

Click Next.

Step 4:

On clicking Next you have to select the Manual way of setting up the account. Click Next Again.

Step 5:

On clicking Next you have select the Internet E-mail option out of the three and Click Next again.

Step 6:

In this Pop up window, you have to add information related to your own personal account. Make sure to enter all information correctly. 

Step 7:

After putting in all the information, Go to More Settings option in the current Pop up window. This should open another Pop up window. On this window, go to Outgoing Server and check box 'My outgoing server requires Authentication'

Step 8:

On this same Pop up window, go to Advanced and adjust the settings of 'Outgoing SMTP'. In my case it is 587. 

Step 9:

After ajdusting all the settings click Ok. Then on the Previous Pop up window, click next. On clicking next the system will check the authenticity of the information provided by you and will send a test E-mail. If both tests are successful, you are ready to use your account. 

If any of the tests fails, you will have to review and correct the information provided by you.

Good Luck!
