The first E-Mail Accounts screen will then appear. Make
certain that
View or change existing e-mail accounts is
selected, and then click Next (see below).

On the second E-Mail Accounts screen, make sure that
the mail.homefinder.org account
is selected, and then click the button marked Change.

Below is an example of the third E-Mail Account screen, which
should read
Internet E-mail Settings (POP3) at the top of the screen.

There are two changes to make on this screen. First, in the
User Name area,
add @homefinder.org to the end of the existing User Name.
![]() |
Secondly, you may need to change the value listed for
Outgoing mail server (SMTP).
That depends upon your Internet Provider. You'll likely be able to use the
Consultech
outgoing mail server mail.homefinder.org
However, if your internet provider is SBC you will need to change it to their outgoing mail
server
listed in the table below. You may need to contact your internet
provider to get the
correct settings.
| Internet Provider | Outgoing (SMTP) Setting |
| Consultech | mail.homefinder.org |
| SBC/Yahoo DSL (SBCGlobal e-mail) | smtp.sbcglobal.yahoo.com |
![]() |
![]() |

This will open up the Internet E-mail Settings window. Click on the Outgoing Server
tab displayed below.

If you're using mail.homefinder.org as your outgoing mail server make sure that the
My outgoing server (SMTP
) requires authentication checkbox is checked
and the Use same settings as my incoming mail server radio button is
selected.
If you're not using mail.homefinder.org as the outgoing mail server select the Log on using
radio button, and enter the User name and Password provided by your Internet Service
Provider as shown below.

Now that you have changed these three settings, click on the button
marked Test Account Settings
in the E-mail Accounts window.

The following test screen will pop up and run the required tests.

Once the test has finished, click the Close button. If there
were any problems with the test,
back up and check your settings using this page as a guide.
Once you've closed the test
screen, you will be returned to the
E-Mail Accounts screen showing the changed
settings. From this
screen, click Next.

Lastly, from the below screen, click the Finish button to complete the process.

Congratulations! You should now be able to send and receive
with the new Homefinder e-mail system.
You should soon receive a Microsoft Outlook Test Message
in your e-mail, which was generated
when you ran the e-mail settings test earlier in this procedure.

about these changes, please feel free to contact us at
