1.- Initial account setup
Access Outlook, select the "File" option, "Information" and click on Account Settings.
Next, the list of created accounts will be displayed. Select the one where you want to configure newsletter sending and click on Change.

IMPORTANT: From the "Advanced" window you can configure the incoming and outgoing ports for the email account. To configure the newsletter user, it is only necessary to modify the SMTP outgoing port.
