 Setting
Up Netscape to Check Your POP Email
If
you prefer to use Netscape Mail to check your POP email,
these instructions will help guide you through the
process. Please note that some versions of Netscape may
have slightly different methods for performing these
tasks, or menu options may be located in different areas
of the browser. If these instructions do not match your
version of Netscape, please consult your Netscape
documentation for more information.
Note:
Netscape typically limits the number of POP email accounts
that you may setup to only one. If you currently
have a different email account setup in your Netscape
Mail, you will need to edit and replace that information
with your new POP account settings. If you prefer not to do
this, we suggest you consider an alternative email program
that allows you to check multiple email accounts.
Select
the "Edit" menu at the top of the Netscape
browser. Then choose Preferences. In the list
of options at the left, select Mail and Newsgroups to
display additional choices. To edit settings for a
new POP email account, choose Identity.
Enter
your preferred name in the "Your Name" field.
Enter the entire email address you wish to check in the
"Email address" field, such as john@mydomain.com.
Enter your "reply-to" email address also.
Next,
select Mail Servers from the left-hand menu
choices. If you currently have an existing email
account server setup, highlight it and click the
"Edit" button. If you are setting up a server
for the first time, click "Add". The name
specified for the server should be the domain name of your
website with Commerce Blvd, such as mydomain.com. For
server type, select the option for "POP3
Server". For username, enter the part of
your email address that is before the @ sign (for example,
the username for jane@commerceblvd.com is jane).
Enter
your preference for how often Netscape should check your
email, and click the OK button.
After
you have returned to the Mail Servers window, you will
need to update the settings for Outgoing Mail Server.
For "Outgoing mail (SMTP) server" and
"Outgoing mail server username", you should
enter the information provided by your ISP (Internet
connection provider). This might be something like mail.swbell.net
or pop.myisp.com. If you are unsure what the
correct Outgoing server information is, please contact
your ISP. If your ISP does not provide SMTP/Outgoing
mail services, please click
here.
You
may also specify other preferences in Netscape that relate
to your email, such as "Disk Space". To
learn more about these settings, please consult your
Netscape documentation or support resources.
