=== Setting Up Microsoft Windows Live Mail ===

This tutorial shows you how to set up Microsoft Windows Live Mail to work with your email account.

For other email software, refer to [[How to set up your email program to access your Spiffy Stores mailboxes]]

'''Note:''' In these instructions, ''yourstore'' refers to the name given to your Spiffy Store, and this is the name that appears in your spiffystores.com domain name. For example, if your store is called '''sellmore''', then your Spiffy Stores domain name will be '''sellmore.spiffystores.com'''.

'''To set up Windows Live Mail:'''

# Open Windows Live Mail.
# Click on the "Accounts" tab, then click on the "Email" button. [[Image:Email windowslive1.png]]

#* In the "Email address" field, enter your email address. '''Note: ''' If you're using your own domain name, you can enter the email address here that you want people to see when you send email to them. For example, if your custom domain is "joeswidgets.com" and you've set up an account for "joe@joeswidgets.spiffystores.com", you can still just enter "joe@joeswidgets.com".
