Microsoft Entourage IMAP/POP3
Step 1: Adding an account
When you run Entourage for the first time, you will be prompted to setup an account. You can continue through this dialog box directly into account creation or, if you prefer, click cancel to manually setup your account. For the purposes of this guide we assume you have either run Entourage before or canceled the automatic account creation, allowing for manual setup.
Once Entourage is open, simply click on Tools on the Menu Bar at the top of the screen and select Accounts at the bottom of the menu.
Step 2: Creating a new account
The Accounts window should now be open. Just to the right of the New button at the top left of the Accounts window you should see a small black arrow pointing down. Click on this arrow to expand your choices and select Mail.
Step 3: Selecting an account type
You will be asked to select the type of email account you wish to set up. Choose either POP or IMAP, depending on your preference, and click OK.
Step 4: Account settings
Enter your account information as displayed in the image below. Your account name can be set to whatever you like, but be sure to format your email address and login information correctly. For incoming mail, your login information must be formatted as domain\privateid\publicid.
