How do I set up my mailbox in Outlook?

We make use of ‘autodiscover’ technology, so that in the majority of cases, Microsoft Outlook can set up your account for you with only an email address and a password.

Automatic Outlook Setup
  • In Outlook, choose the File tab
  • Under Account Information, choose Add Account
  • On the Auto Account Setup page, enter your name, email address, and password, and then choose Next
  • Choose Finish
Manual Outlook Setup for your mailbox

If automatic setup failed, you can choose Manual setup or additional server types to enter your settings manually. Use these settings:

Account type: IMAP
Incoming mail server: imap.j36digital.cloud
Outgoing mail server: smtp.j36digital.cloud
Incoming server port (IMAP): 993
Use the following type of encrypted connection: SSL
Outgoing server port (SMTP): 465
Use the following type of encrypted connection: SSL/TLS

When setting up your account, please choose More Settings > Outgoing Server and check the box for ‘My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication’.

You can also set up the account using POP3, however this is not recommended in general as emails will be downloaded to the mail client you connect to the mail server.

Account type: POP3
Incoming mail server: pop3.j36digital.cloud
Outgoing mail server: smtp.j36digital.cloud
Incoming server port (POP3): 995
Use the following type of encrypted connection: SSL
Outgoing server port (SMTP): 465
Use the following type of encrypted connection: SSL/TLS
