The next step is to tell Outlook that you want to setup a new mail account. This is done by clicking on the 'add' button, then selecting the mail submenu item.

Step 4 (Your email address)

Select the default option (I already have an email address that I'd like to use) then input your new email address. As an example, say you purchased a domain name www.domain.com - your email address could be sales@domain.com, john@domain.com, info@.domain.com etc... Once done, click next.

Outgoing mail server is smtp.yourdomainname.com (change yourdomainname.com to the domain you wish to receive email to and from)

once done, click next.
