Microsoft Outlook Express Email Setup

Microsoft Outlook Express is preloaded on many computers running the Microsoft Windows operating systems from recent years. This program allows you to send and receive your email as well as create a list of contacts.

To send and receive your EnergyNet email, it is necessary to configure Outlook Express to connect to the EnergyNet email server. The steps below will guide you through the process.

1. Open Outlook Express by clicking on "Start" then "Programs" then choose "Outlook Express."
2. Once the program opens, click on "Tools" on the top menu bar. From the dropdown menu, click on "E-mail Accounts."
3. This will open the E-mail accounts wizard. Click on the radio button for "Add a new e-mail account" and then click "Next." 
4. You are now asked for your server type. Click on the radio button for "Pop3" and click "Next."
5. In the "Your Name" box, type in the name that you will want recipients of your emails to see. (Example: John Doe, John & Jane Doe, The Doe Family)
   
   
    
6. In the "E-mail Address" box, type in your EnergyNet e-mail address. This will be your user name followed by "@hesenergy.net." (Example: If your user name was "anyuser," your email address would be: anyuser@hesenergy.net.)
7. The incoming and outgoing mail server addresses are the same for EnergyNet. In both of these boxes, type "mail.hesenergy.net".
8. In the "User Name" box, type in the user name you supplied to EnergyNet.
9. In the "Password" box, type in the password you supplied to EnergyNet. If you don't want to have to enter your password each time you open your email program, check the box "Remember Password." At this point, you can click on the box "Test Account Settings" to send a test email to yourself.
10. When finished, Click "Next." At the next box, click "Finish." Your email account is now set up to send and receive your EnergyNet email.
