  2. Under Account Information, select Add Account.
  3. Choose Manually configure server settings or additional server types and click Next.
  4. Select IMAP and click Next.
  5. Fill in your account information:
    • Your Name: Enter your name.
    • Email Address: Enter your full email address (e.g., ******@markruthvens.com).

    • Outgoing mail server (SMTP): You may need to check with FatCow for this information.
    • User Name: Enter your full email address.
    • Password: Enter your email password.
  6. Click on More Settings and go to the Outgoing Server tab. Check the box for "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication".
