Step 4.

Enter in the following information: Your Name, your username and password, and the server addresses, like in the boxes below. If your domain is www.mydomain.com, then just type in pop.mydomain.com for the incoming and smtp.mydomain.com for the outgoing server. Then check the "Remember Password" box, and click "More Settings".

Step 5.

SMTP authentication is required to send e-mail through IE Internet. Without this enabled, you cannot send e-mail. You'll probably see error '550'. SMTP authentication helps deter would-be spammers from sending spam.
