Configuring an MS-Exchange mail account from home on a personal laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit), Outlook 2010 (32-bit)
Follow your provider’s official instructions and entry points – this is only to remind myself where I have to jump through which domain qualifying hoops:
- Establish the VPN connection to your MS-Exchange environment
- Go to “Control Panel”, open “Mail Setup”, click button:”E-mail Accounts”
- In dialogue:”Account settings”, click button:”New”
- Select “E-mail account”
- Select “Manually configure …”
- Select “Microsoft Exchange…”
- Enter the info you have been given and click check names.
- In the Windows Security Dialogue, enter the qualifying domain:
- I did not need to enter “More Settings”.
- One of quite a few oddities I observed: After creating the Exchange account in the Control Panel: Mail item, when starting Outlook, the Windows Security dialogue that asks for my credentials appear to not accept my password (it comes up over and over again, asking for the password). However, once I canceled out of it and restarted Outlook, Outlook went right into downloading my Exchange mail etc. (this was with “Remember my credentials”set in the Windows Security dialogue). Go figure!
