How to Add Multiple Email Accounts to Mac Mail Application

http://bit.ly/techrwp

The other day I was trying to import a new email account to the Mail application that comes with every Mac. After a lot of experimenting, I was able to figure it out, so in this video I want to save you some time by showing you how to do it.

Hey so I did this but its asking me for an incoming mail mail server and Idk what to put!

its a school email and they are using windows outlook live.

@chelseafan4life09 I assume you're using Snow Leopard (as I've tested it on Lion and it didn't ask that). On Snow Leopard, the incoming mail server for Windows Live (under pop mail server) is pop3.live.com. Hope that helps. If not, please respond and we'll see what the problem is.

Thanks for commenting!

You're awesome. It works on the new version of mail that comes with Lion too.

[techkidhelp101]

@WhiteShadow139 Thanks for the kind words. It's definitely very good it still works on Lion; it gets confusing sometimes (especially for new Mac users) with them changing all the optimization tools every OS. I'll probably still update the video, though; so it shows the new interface.

Is it possible to show the windows on screen bigger. I cannot see what is in them they are too small and blurred and I would benefit from seeing whats in them especially the window wtih ACCOUNTS

[techkidhelp101]

@deniseboston101 Perhaps the problem is that you're not putting up the screen resolution enough. If you put it up to 720p or 1080p, that will likely fix the problem.
