Getting root email

[Esr Tek]

I checked the mail in WHM and found root had 142 messages in que!!!!

I cant get to server via Outlook to get mail off!!

I edited the dns zone for the server name (server.myserver.com)
to it I added
"mail 14000 Cname server.myserver.com."
so i could get mail. however I can not even seem to conenct to it via outlook. I used in outlook for my pop/smtp mail.server.myserver.com and username of "root" w/ roots password (which works for SSH and WHM).

I also see another DNS zone named "mail" however it is blank and I got a error tryin to setup the CNAME in it.

Can someone tell me what I am doin wrong?

Thanks in advance

login @ WHM and go to - Change where system mail goes.

Change where system mail goes and forward to your account
