How to install email account

[123mijnwebsite]

Hello! I just got a vps server with plesk 12 on it. I'm a newbie in this stage!

I've added domains and so far so good. But I can't figure out how to install the email accounts.

I've made de email accounts and when adding these accounts to my mail program I wanted to use mail.domain.com or imap.domain.com But it doesn't work? And I need to use the smtp host of the internetprovider?

How can I use imap.domain.com and smtp.domain.com to get and send my emails?

Also Is there any way how to check if my server is installed ok and there are no security issues? Because I'm a noob I don't know what the best settings are?

I hope someone can help me with this.

Thank you!

I suggast you read carefully Plesk documentation first. For example - Adding Mail Account - http://download1.parallels.com/Plesk/PP12/12.0/Doc/en-US/online/plesk-customer-guide/65700.htm
