ONLINE MANUAL
Chapter 3. Email
        3.5 OTHER MAIL PROGRAMS

Microsoft Internet Mail

Full name = Your Name
Email = [username]@[yourdomain].com
Internet Mail server = mail.[yourdomain].com
Account = [username] or [yourdomain]
Pass = [password]
SMTP = mail.[yourdomain].com
From = whatever@[yourdomain].com

Netscape

Your Name = Your Name
Email Address = [username]@[yourdomain].com
Reply to = [username]@[yourdomain].com
Mail Server user name = [username]
outgoing SMTP = mail.[yourdomain].com
Incoming = mail.[yourdomain].com

If you would like additional POP email accounts, you can set them up by contacting HelpDesk. Remember that there may be additional charges for each POP account depending on your account. To check numerous POP accounts, read the manual or help files that come with Eudora or your email client software for configuration.

If you are familiar with the shell (Unix) programs, such as "pine", you can use either of these to check and send email as well.

*Using SMTP Server

Per dialup session, you would need to be authenticated to use the SMTP(Outgoing Mail) server. This is to prevent spammers from gaining access to your SMTP server. Here is how you can be authenticated:

1) Get connected to the Internet
2) Start your email software.
3) Make sure there is no outgoing mail in your outbox.
4) Log into the POP server to check your email
5) Now you are authenticated and you should be able to send and receive email w/o any problems. As long as you don't quit the program and stay connected to the net, you wouldn't need to be authenticated anymore.

If your SMTP access is denied after trying the steps above, you would need to contact your ISP. It is likely that they are not allowing relay to outside SMTP server. More and more ISP's are implementing this feature to prevent spamming.

There is a very easy workaround to this. All you have to do is to use your ISP's SMTP server. This does not affect how your email address appears on your outgoing emails. When recipients of your message hit the reply button, they will see your email address at your domain name.
