How to Add Orange Email to Outlook with Proper Steps?

In this blog, I am going to explain how you are going to connect Orange emails to Outlook. Here, I will explain both manual and professional ways to move your Orange emails. So, let’s start by explaining the reasons for configuring your Orange webmail to Outlook.

Orange Mail is a webmail service from which you can send and receive emails from any device using a web browser. Microsoft Outlook, on the other hand, is a popular email service that runs on your desktop. Many people use this program to not only send, receive, and manage emails, but also contacts and calendars. It is very easy to connect your Orange account with Outlook, whether you use a personal account or a business account.

Why Transfer Orange Emails to Outlook?

Both Orange and Outlook are different email services, as one is webmail and the other is a desktop application. Outlook is a much more popular email service than the other program. Therefore, many switch their account for several reasons.

• Moving your mailbox makes email management easier. Having multiple accounts makes it difficult to organize their emails for business.
• Outlook is a desktop app and provides you with an offline option, where you want to access your Orange emails without internet.
• Some want to move their emails as a backup for any future reference.
• You are tired of using Orange webmail and want to switch to Outlook. Then, you have to move your complete mailbox.
• Having your emails in Outlook allows you to take advantage of its productivity. Such as managing calendars, contacts, tasks, and shared mailbox rules.

Whatever the reasons that you have for adding your Orange emails to Outlook. There are some steps that you must follow before starting the procedure.

Prepare your Migration

• You must have a proper and valid Orange and Outlook account. Make sure your password and email address are still working.
• Installing Microsoft Outlook is a must, and make sure you have the latest version.
• Use a high-speed internet connection, as if there is a disturbance, you may lose some of your data.
• Create a backup of your Orange mailbox before you move it to Outlook.
• Check your Outlook mailbox before configuring your account. Make sure it is large enough to store your Orange emails.

The methods I am going to use here use the IMAP protocol. But do you know your Orange IMAP server settings? If not, I have provided them below.

Orange IMAP Server Settings

For this, you have to first enable your IMAP server. Also, you must know the server settings. So, here are the settings of your Orange IMAP server.

• IMAP Server – imap.orange.fr
• IMAP Port – 993
• IMAP security – SSL/TLS
• SMTP Server – smtp.orange.fr
• SMTP Port – 465 (SSL) or 587 (TLS)

How to Connect Orange Email to Outlook Manually?

Now you can transfer your emails using the automatic option. Here are the steps.

1. Open your Microsoft Outlook and go to the File option.
2. Select Add Account. Add your Orange email address and password. Click Connect.
3. Outlook automatically configures your account once the process is complete. Press Done or Finish.

If your Outlook does not connect your account automatically, choose the option of manual configuration. Provide the IMAP settings and then manually connect your account.
