Tango Hosting Email Setup

To set up Outlook 2000 (PC) you will first have to acquire the necessary information:

Server Type: POP3
Incoming Server: mail.yourdomain.com (where yourdomain.com is your actual domain name)
Outgoing Server: mail.yourdomain.com

Email Address: (i.e. name@yourdomain.com)
Password: Your E-mail Password
  1. Start Outlook, and on the Tools menu, click Accounts. (Also called "Email Accounts")

  2. In the Internet Accounts dialog box, click Add, and then click Mail. The Internet Connection Wizard will guide you through the account setup process.

  3. In the Your Name box type your Display Name, the name you would like to have appear on all mail messages you send, and then click Next.



  4. In the Email Address box, type the address that you setup in your Control Panel. Click Next.



  5. Select POP3 in the "My incoming mail server is a ______ server" list.

    Type your incoming mail server in the "Incoming Mail (POP3 or IMAP) server" box. This server name is mail.yourdomain.com (where yourdomain.com is replaced with your actual domain name).

    Type the outgoing mail server in the "Outgoing mail (SMTP) server" box. This server name is mail.mydomain.com (where mydomain.com is replaced with your actual domain name) Click Next.

    Important: Many ISP's (Internet Service Providers) require that you enter their Outgoing SMTP information rather then your own (i.e. mail.yourdomain.com), especially if you are using a non-business service account. Cox, Verizon,, Earthlink, NetZero, Mindspring, MSN, Flashnet, MediaOne, AT&T, Bell, Yahoo SBC etc. all require this setting, please contact them directly to acquire this information, if you are having trouble sending email.

  6. Type your Account Name (NOTE: This is your entire email address name@yourdomain.com) and Password. This information was set when you setup this email account in your Control Panel.



  7. Click Next until you get to the final window. Click Finish

I have heard a lot of tools,which work with outlook passwords and more that. But once no one of its couldn't help me. Then all my passwords were lost. And I did an unexpectedly choice and called a friend up. And he advised to me - microsoft exchange loses password. The software restored the passwords for a minute and made it for free as far as I remember. Now I have been satisfied.
