4. In the Add Account window, select “Manual setup or additional server types” and click “Next.”
5. Choose “POP or IMAP” and click “Next.”
6. In the POP and IMAP Account Settings window, enter the following information:
– Your Name: Your preferred display name
– Email Address: Your full Roadrunner email address
– Account Type: Select either POP3 or IMAP, depending on your preference (IMAP is recommended for syncing emails across multiple devices)
– Incoming Mail Server: Enter “pop-server.ec.rr.com” for POP3 or “imap-server.ec.rr.com” for IMAP
– Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): Enter “smtp-server.ec.rr.com”
7. Below the Server Information section, enter your Roadrunner email address as the “User Name,” and then enter your Roadrunner email password.
8. Click on the “More Settings” button.

12. Go to the “Advanced” tab.
13. In the Advanced settings, enter the following information:

15. Click “OK” to save the settings.
16. Back in the Add Account window, click on the “Test Account Settings” button to verify the configuration. Outlook will test the connection to the Roadrunner servers and confirm if the settings are correct.
