How do I configure Outlook?
It is usually very easy to configure a VortexMail account in Outlook or Outlook Express.

The most important thing is to know the address of your VortexMail server. This is the same computer address that you use in the browser when you login to Webmail.

For instance, if you can access the login page at the address http://mail.vortexmail.com
