The MX records are not currently pointed at (mt) Media Temple. This tells us that this email address is probably being handled by an external email provider. These instructions will probably not work for you.

Before continuing, you will need to ensure a special DNS record exists in this zone file in the Account Center. This record tells Outlook how to configure itself.

It looks like your email account is hosted on a (dv) Dedicated Virtual Server or (ve) Server. We suggest using SSL for best security, but doing so will probably cause your email application to display an SSL Certificate warning during the setup process. If you see such a warning, it is safe to proceed and trust the certificate. If given the option, we suggest you 'always allow' or 'permanently trust' the certificate so you do not see future warnings.
