To set up outgoing email, click the More Settings button and click the Outgoing Server tab. Check the box that Outlook should use the same settings as for the incoming mail server.

Ports

If you want to replace the outgoing port from 25, which is the default SMTP port for outgoing traffic, you can do so by clicking the Advanced tab.

Then fill in 366 in the field after Outgoing server (SMTP). This is where you can fill in if you want to leave a copy on the server and for how many days it is to be saved. This can be advantageous if you want to set up the account in several places, but it also increases the risk that the account will be full and unable to receive emails. It is recommended to save a copy for about 7 days on the server before they are deleted.

To test that all details have been filled in correctly, you can now close the box and click the Test Account Settings... button. Then a test message will be sent and received by your email account. If this test shows no errors, you can click Next. Click Finish and you’re ready!
