Getting started with your Gandi or Outlook email: A quick guide

Accessing your email

Getting into your email is as easy as pie. Head to the top right corner of the website and click “My Website.” From there, navigate to the email tab, where you’ll find everything you need to manage and access your emails. A little tip, though—while Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge might get the job done, we recommend Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox for a smoother experience.

Setting up your email

Wondering how to get your email up and running? Don’t sweat it; we’ve got all the deets right here:

Email setup basics:

  • Open Outlook: Whether it’s Outlook 2003, 2007, 2010, or 2013, just pop it open. If it’s your first time since installing, it’ll ask if you want to set up an email account. Hit “yes” and move to the next step. If you’ve been here before, head to the setup by finding “Email Accounts” or “Add Account” through the menu.
  • Server type: Choose IMAP as your server type.
  • Input your details: This includes your name (how you want it displayed), your business email ([email protected]), and all that login jazz (same email and the password you picked during setup).
  • Server info: Here’s where you’ll type in the incoming and outgoing server details (usually something like mail.gandi.net, but check with your provider).
  • More settings: Don’t forget to click “More Settings” to confirm that your outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. You’ll also want to check the server port numbers are correct (Incoming: 993, Outgoing: 465, both with SSL encryption).

Finalizing setup:

Once you’ve double-checked everything, hit “Next,” and bam! Your business email should now be snugly connected to Outlook, ready for you to start emailing like a boss.
