How do I receive my Verizon mail in Microsoft Outlook

I am trying to receive my email directly through Microsoft Outlook without logging into Verizon's website. I have already tried the method through Verizon in home agent, but it took my info and transferred it to my Verizon account (calendars and address book). Also Verizon is my main email account if that matters. Thanks for any input. Also if anyone could tell me how to make my calendar available to other members please let me know. I have set it up and put in my contacts email address but they are still not able to see my calendar

Verizon Troubleshooter

Auto Setup Outlook

try the auto set up for ease of use, it should work. this is slightly different than in home agent.

If it doesn't work you can follow these steps.

User name settings

Your Verizon Online user name (for example, vzn12345)
Your Verizon Online password (for example, password1)

Mail server settings

Incoming mail server (POP3😞 incoming.verizon.net
Outgoing mail server (SMTP😞 outgoing.verizon.net
Outgoing Server Port Number: 587 Why is this important?
Your Verizon Online user name
Your Verizon Online password

Step-by-Step Instructions.

what error message are you getting?

Also when you sign up for verizon, you have the option of choosing yahoo as a portal experience.

that would change your incoming settings.

so try incoming.yahoo.verizon.net and outgoing.yahoo.verizon.net instead of incoming.verizon.net and outgoing.verizon.net

see if that helps.

Thanks for your response. I am not getting an error message, it is telling me its working properly thats whats so confusing to me. I can send mail from outlook but i can not receive mail into outlook. I dont think i signed up for anything with yahoo but its worth a shot.

Thanks again,

Rich
