Setting Up A 3rd Party Mail Program

Assuming you have created the email accounts in your Plesk control panel (see setting up and creating email accounts), it’s time to set them up in your email client Outlook or Outlook Express. Alternatively you can also use the webmail to read any mail directly from the server when you set up your mail. The information provided below is designed to follow Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express but should have all the information you need to setup any email client.
