Windows 10 Mail
Also works for Windows 8
This tutorial shows you how to set up your email account in the default email program on Windows 10. Currently Windows 10 Mail doesn't support POP 3 so this tutorial covers setting it up in IMAP.
Click on the arrows to progress through the tutorial. You can click the image to see a larger version.
1. Open Mail from the Windows 10 Start Menu.
2. Click "View all in Settings".
3. Select "Other account".
4. Select IMAP and click "Connect".
5. Enter your full email address and password and click "Connect".
6. You can click "Allow" to let Mail run in the background and provide notifications for incoming email.
7. Enter the server settings:
- Email address: your full email address
- Username: your full email address
- Password: your email password
- Incoming (IMAP) email server: mail.mydirectlink.net, Port: 993
- Check "Incoming server requires SSL
- Outgoing (SMTP) email server: mail.mydirectlink.net, Port: 587
- Check "Outgoing server requires SSL"
- Check "Outgoing server requires authentication"
- Check "Use the same username and password to send and receive email"
8. That will take you to your inbox and now you are all set up!
