Set up TPG email on Outlook 356

[Anonymous]

Hi @pallantdavies,

We'd like to confirm if the email is not working only using Outlook 356. Have you tried to use the email using your post office ( https://www.tpg.com.au/home/postoffice ).

We'll forward this to our post master for further investigation.

Hi @pallantdavies, we'd like to know if you're still having issues with the email. Feel free to drop us a message should you need further assistance. Thank you.

Yes, still the same problem.... nothing has changed!

Is it working on the TPG Post Office?

Hi @pallantdavies,

Please enable the SMTP Authentication for the email setup.

See attached file for reference.

I had to get to the older set up routine and bypass the wizard as the only way to force Outlook 2016 to use the TPG settings. This is how to get to the older settings:

1. Close Outlook using 'File' >> 'Exit'
Note:- (Ensure that Outlook is completely closed).
2. Press Windows key + ‘R’ key to keyboard to open Run window.
3. Type 'outlook /manageprofiles' (without the quotes) in Run window >> click on ‘OK’.
Note: There is a space between outlook and forward slash (/).
4. In Mail setup window, choose 'Show Profiles' >> Select the profile, in which you want to add the account >> 'Properties'.
5. Click on 'Email Accounts' button, and then click on 'New'.
6.Choose Auto for IMAP or Manual account set-up for POP3. (incoming 110, outgoing 25)
