Adding a Nabtech mailbox to current Outlook for Windows

Use a supported Outlook release for your business mailbox. Outlook 2019 belongs to an Office version whose support ended in 2025, so its old screenshots are not a current setup standard. New Outlook and classic Outlook expose different account setup interfaces.

Check access and requirements

Identify whether you are using new Outlook or classic Outlook, since their setup screens differ. Confirm the mailbox works in webmail and have its provider-supplied connection and authentication details ready. Preserve any local-only mail if you are replacing an existing account rather than adding a new one.

01 Add a Nabtech mailbox to current Outlook for Windows

  1. Obtain the mailbox's secure IMAP and SMTP hostnames, ports, encryption modes and username. Confirm that the mailbox works in webmail.
  2. In new Outlook, open the account settings, then Accounts > Your accounts > Add Account. In classic Outlook, use File > Add Account and its advanced/manual setup when needed.
  3. Enter the full address and follow the appropriate IMAP setup flow. Use the provider's secure settings and mailbox password rather than assuming Outlook.com server names apply.
  4. Review any account synchronisation or provider permission notices before completing setup. Where your organisation restricts cloud synchronisation, confirm that the chosen Outlook edition fits that policy.

Test sending and receiving

Send and receive a small test message and check the From address, Sent folder and synchronised folders against webmail. Verify each account separately when several addresses are configured.

Resolve setup problems

An incorrect SMTP configuration can prevent sending even when incoming mail works. A certificate error should be corrected by checking the hostname and certificate, not bypassed. If the account needs provider-specific authentication, use that product's supported sign-in flow.

A common question

Is Outlook the email hosting provider?

Not necessarily. Outlook is the app in this guide. Your mailbox can remain hosted by Nabtech, OX, Zoho or Google, each with its own supported connection and authentication settings.
