4. The app will load for a while, and more fields will be displayed. Here, make sure to enter:

| Email Address        | (**Your email address**) | 
| Username             | (**Your email address**) |
| Password             | (**Your password**)      |
| Account Type         | **POP**             |
| Incoming Mail Server | **mail.yourdomain.com** (where yourdomain.com is your actual domain) |
| Outgoing Mail Server | **mail.yourdomain.com** (where yourdomain.com is your actual domain) |

6. Click Continue if the certificate is *.agnx.com.

//*Note//: As AfterOffice is using agnx.com as the Global Network Exchange domain, the system is unable to match your mail server (mail.yourdomain.com) with agnx.com, thus, it shows the above warning. You can safely accept this certificate as it is our valid certificate, used for establishing secure connection between your mail client and the server.

7. To trust and save the certificate, you are required to key in your machine's username and password, and click **Update Settings**.
