( The Best Web Hosting Service )- Windows Mail comes built-in with Windows 7, so you are saved the hassle of installing any other email software. You can set it up to either hold a single email account or add more to create multiple email accounts. It’s quite simple and straightforward; all you need is the POP information that your email service provider should furnish. This is how the format looks: pop server pop.youremailprovider.com or smtp server smtp.youremailprovider.com. Of course, you need to have your email address and password ready.

Here are the simple steps to set up your Windows Mail:

• Click the Add Email Account button; when prompted, place your email address and password. You can also pick a display name of your choice (which you can easily change later). Prepare to input the details from your email service provider. If you don’t have them, check out your email service provider’s website and look for pop email settings. In case you don’t have a ready and existing email account, you can obtain one (for free) from Hotmail, only for purposes of setting up your Windows Mail account.

• Check that the settings work by sending an email to somebody you know; request them to reply so you can check what address appears on your email. If you intend to add more email accounts, just the repeat the process every time you create a new account. An alphabetically sorted list is generated and usually appears on the left portion of the screen.

• To select the account you want to make use of when you send email, you can simply go to Inbox and click on New Email. Another option is to click on New Email, then pick the email account you want, using the “From” dropdown option box on the screen. Your accounts can be used interchangeably; so you know that if you suddenly change your mind in the middle of writing you can easily alter the address on the “From” section.

• Now if it’s the display name you want to change, right click on the account name; click Properties, which should bring up the highlighted current display name. Modify it according to your choice and click OK when you’re done. There’s another option that allows you to sync individual or all email accounts that you have. This gives the added assurance that all emails are sent and received. Press the F5 key if you want to make a quick shortcut for this.

As you can see, there’s nothing complicated in setting up your Windows Mail. Just go right ahead and create as many accounts as you need or want.
