Step 3: A menu will appear - click Manage Profiles.
Step 6: Click Manual setup or additional server type, and then click Next.
Step 7: Click POP or IMAP, and then click Next.

that in the User Name box you enter your username and not your actual
name or e-mail address.
Step 9: Click More Settings at the bottom right.
Step 11: Click on My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication, then select Log on user. Then fill the username and password boxes with the the same username and password you entered previously.
Step 12:
- Click on the Advanced tab.
- Set Incoming server (IMAP) to 993.
- Set Outgoing server (SMTP) to 465.
- In the two sections where it says to Use the following type of encrypted connection, change both to SSL/TLS.
- Click Ok at the bottom of this screen.
Congratulations!
Outlook 365 will complete setup by sending a test message and adding the new inbox to your Outlook application.
If this fails, try re-entering the username and password in the two places required. This is the most common cause of problems!
