  • Type in your full email address in the POP Account field, where name is the user name or mailbox name and the mail.yourdomainname.com is the word mail. followed by your domain name.
  • For the SMTP Server, we recommend that you use your ISP's SMTP Server since this configuration works best.  Most ISP's offer an SMTP Server free with their dial-up service and all you need to do is call them to find out what that SMTP Server name is.

    If your ISP does not offer an SMTP Server (like AOL), then you can use mail.yourdomainname.com as the SMTP Server.  But, when using your mail.yourdomainname.com as the SMTP server, you must always check for mail before being allowed to send mail (POP before SMTP).

F.

Select "Auto Configure" in the Option's navigation bar on the left and type in the following information:
