How do I set up email in Microsoft Outlook?

Add your Global MCS mailbox using the instructions for your Outlook edition. Menu labels vary by release.

1. Classic Outlook for Windows: Open File → Add Account, enter your full email address, open Advanced options, choose manual setup, and select IMAP.
2. New Outlook for Windows: Open View → View settings → Accounts → Your accounts → Add Account. Enter your address and follow the prompts; use the IMAP/manual settings when requested. Do not look for the classic Advanced options screen here.
3. Enter the incoming and outgoing settings below. If using POP3 instead, use its separate incoming port.
4. Where shown, leave Require logon using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) unchecked. Use normal mailbox-password authentication over the encrypted connection. Enable outgoing SMTP authentication with the same credentials.
5. Complete the connection test and finish setup. For Outlook for Mac, use that edition's Add Account flow; Windows menu paths do not apply.

• Username: Your full email address; use your mailbox password.
• IMAP (recommended): webmail.globalmcs.net, port 993, SSL/TLS.
• POP3 (alternative): webmail.globalmcs.net, port 995, SSL/TLS.
• SMTP: webmail.globalmcs.net, port 465 with SSL/TLS, or port 587 with STARTTLS.
• SMTP authentication: Required, using the same full email address and mailbox password as incoming mail.

Use the server hostname supplied for your account. A custom name such as mail.yourdomain.com works only when its DNS and valid certificate are configured for that name. If a certificate warning appears, stop and contact support to correct the hostname or certificate. Do not bypass the warning or disable certificate validation. Enter your password only in your own mail application or verified control panel, never in a support chat.
