Here we have a choice to make. If we want to send mail normally without any security in place use the settings below and click Apply and OK.
IF you want to send mail using our SSL certificate use the settings below. Otherwise you are done.
The only thing you will notice is a warning message each time you open your mail program. This message is normal because of the way we do our security. Microsoft wants us to purchase THEIR certificate which I will not do. The message you get is caused by Microsoft not wanting to allow my certificate since I did not buy it from them.
WEBKRAFT.NET does not offer secure mail, only our WEBKRAFT-HS accounts or mail hosted by WebKraftHosting.net provides this added security feature.
Click Yes once and this window will not appear again until you close and reopen Outlook Express again.
That's it. Your mail should be working. Don't forget that we have a webmail interface that works without setting anything up and can be accessed from any computer on the web.
