If the instructions don't work for you. Make sure that you have pop access and forwarding enabled on your account. Click on "Options" in your email account. The pop access and forwarding link should be in the 3rd column. If it is not there then you have to sign up for mail Plus. Follow the link below and you can sign up for it.
