The screenshots shown below are taken from Microsoft Entourage 2004.
The setup process is the same for earlier versions.

2) Select Tools and then Accounts.

3) Click on New.

4) If the "Account Setup Assistant" window displays, click
on "Configure account manually".

5) Select POP for the account type and click Ok.

6) In the "Edit Account" window, enter your information as follows:

Account name: Enter a name for your account, for example: My Mail or Home.

Your Name: Enter your first and last name
(This is the name which is displayed to your recipient)

E-mail Address: Enter you full Claranet email address

Account ID: Enter the username for your account. For example if your email address is joebloggs@clara.co.uk the username you enter would be joebloggs

Please note that if you have a Claranet email account that is provided as part of a ClaraHost package, then the username should be the full email address including the domain name e.g. joebloggs@example.co.uk.

Password: Enter you account password.

Incoming (POP3) and outgoing mail server (SMTP): The incoming mail server should be filled in as pop.clara.net and the outgoing mail server should be filled in as relay.clara.net.

Please note that if you are connecting to the internet using another provider, enter the outgoing SMTP server for that provider.

Once all the information is entered, click on Ok to complete the setup.
