- NETSCAPE EMAIL SETUP

 


The following instructions cover typical usage of Netscape Messenger/Communicator and assume the software has been installed correctly on your system.

The instructions are only for individuals with a direct Internet connection, by modem or network. If you are behind a firewall or proxy server, the information below may not work. Consult your network administrator for more information.
1. From the Edit menu, select Preferences.
2. Open the Mail & Newsgroups section and click Mail Servers.

Outgoing Mail Server: 'mail.yourdomain.com'

3. Click Add to add a new POP Server
4. Configure Pop Server

Server Name: 'mail.yourdomain.com'

Server Type: select POP3 Server.

User Name: popID@yourdomain.com
5. Click Identity in left column.

Your Name: your name

E-mail Address: the e-mail address for the POP mailbox

Reply-to Address: your e-mail address

All other settings are optional. Choosing Messenger Mailbox from the Communicator menu will open the part of Netscape that allows you to read and send mail.

Unfortunately, Netscape Messenger does not natively support retrieval of multiple e-mail accounts for POP3 mail servers. To retrieve mail from multiple accounts, you will need to setup additional user profiles using the User Profile Manager supplied with Netscape. See your Netscape documentation for more information.
