Follow
these easy steps below to set up your Netscape 6.x for e-mail.
1. In
Netscape, go to the Tasks menu and select Mail.
2. The
New Account Wizard will automatically appear for the user opening Netscape
Mail with Netscape 6.x for the first time. Continue
to step 3 if the account
wizard automatically appears.
If you have previously
used Netscape Mail in Netscape 6.x, follow these steps to manually start
the
New Account
Wizard:
* Go to the Edit menu.
* Select Mail/News
Account Settings.
* In the window that is displayed, click on the New
Account button.
3. Once
the New Account Wizard has started, you will be asked for the type of e-mail
account that you have. Select ISP or email
provider and click Next.
4. Enter
your name and GlobalNet e-mail address, ie: johndoe@surfglobal.net
and click Next
5. The
Incoming Mail Server should be set as a POP Mail
Server.
6. For
the Incoming Mail Server (POP3), enter: mail.surfglobal.net and click
Next.
7. For the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP), enter: mail.surfglobal.net and
click Next.
Note: If you already have an Outgoing Mail Server entered in Netscape, the program
will not allow you to enter another outgoing mail server address in the
New Account Wizard. To change your current outgoing mail server to the
Interchange SMTP server, please read the Modifying SMTP Server Settings
section below.
8. Enter your GlobalNet
username in the User name box. ie: johndoe@surfglobal.net
(Just the first part of your email address).
9. Leave this setting unmodified and press
the
Next button. This step does not affect the
way that Netscape retrieves your GlobalNet e-mail.
10. Click
Finish to complete the wizard and save your settings.
