5. Next you must decide whether you would like to use the POP3 or IMAP email protocol.

POP3 is the standard protocol for receiving email from a mail server and it allows you to download all of your emails to one location.

IMAP is best if you access your email from multiple locations, clients and devices as it doesn't require downloading of your email content. We recommend using IMAP settings on Windows Live because if anything were to happen to your computer or mobile device, you would still be able to access your emails.

To find out more about the POP3 and IMAP protocols, watch the followingsupport video.

Then, fill in the following details:

  • Your full email address in the User name field.
  • Your email address password in the Password field.
  • If you have selected POP3 then type in pop.123-reg.co.uk into the POP3 server field.
  • If you have selected IMAP then type in imap.123-reg.co.uk into the IMAP server field.
  • 143 for IMAP and 110 for POP3 as the Port number.
6. Click on the Next button.
