Personal domain email using Outlook.com on Apple Mail
I use Outlook.com as my email provider but have my own personal domain name instead of the one provided by Microsoft. So, instead of "[email protected]", my email address looks like "[email protected]".
I have been trying to somehow configure this email on my Apple Mail client but so far been unsuccessful. I have read several how-to's and tutorials that explain how to configure an outlook.com email on Apple Mail; however, none have explained what to do when you have a private domain running on Outlook.com. Could someone with a similar experience please help me out?
Also, though I will be more than happy to just have my email configured, it would be really great if IMAP were a possibility instead of POP3.
