POP3 Only mail2web account - Outlook on Desktop Access???

[lveitch@swishdata.com]

Hi everyone,

I am a completely new user to mail2web. My company currently uses this service so I have no clue what I am doing. My company says they have set me up with a POP3 only webmail account. I can not access OWA or via mobile.

I just want to know if I can configure this type of account to use on my laptop with Outlook? I know you can set up access to a pop account in Outlook but I dont know what the settings are and if mail2web even allows it.

Can someone inform me or point me in the right direction?
