How do I add my POP3 email account to Outlook?

We will explain you how to set up your POP3 mailbox in Outlook. Important to know is that you always need to use the mailserver of your provider who is responsible for your connection, as your outgoing mailserver (this is the server for the emails you send yourself). We hereby give you a short overview of which server this is with a few well known providers:

  • Pandora (Telenet): uit.telenet.be
  • Skynet: relay.skynet.be
  • Proximus: relay.proximus.be
  • Evonet: smtp.evonet.be

Your provider isn't on the list? Give us a sign!
