Activating
your email account:
Before you proceed in configuring your email client, make sure you have
created all your email accounts through your web
based control panel under email
accounts.
After configuring and
activating your email account, you may then proceed to configure your
email client
Configuring
Eudora
In Eudora, go to the Tools menu and
select OPTIONS.
In the Options window, you will see
several icons on the left. Select GETTING STARTED.
In the REAL NAME field, type
your name the way you would like people to see it when they get email
from you. For example, John Doe.
In the RETURN ADDRESS field,
enter your email address. For example: john@anything.com
In the MAIL SERVER (INCOMING)
field, enter the POP or mail server that was given to you. For example:
If the domain you registered is "www.yourdomain.com" then your
incoming mail server would be "mail.yourdomain.com".
In the LOGIN NAME field, enter
the login name you created in the web
based control panel. For example: If the user name you created is
"John" and the domain you registered for is "www.anything.com";
your login name will be "john%anything.com"
In the SMTP SERVER (OUTGOING)
field, we highly recommend using the outgoing or SMTP server of your
Internet Service Provider (ISP). The reason is because you should
experience faster performance from your own ISP. In some cases, you will
not be able to use your ISPs SMTP server for sending out emails.
If you are using our SMTP
servers please be sure to set your outgoing mail server to "mail.yourdomain.com"
from within your email program. Also, please
be aware that in order to send email though our servers you must have
successfully checked your account within the past 60 minutes. Once you
have checked your mail, you will be able to send mail for the next 60
minutes. We have our server setup this way so that spammers cannot
access our smtp servers so easily. Otherwise spammers could relay their
bulk mail through your account and send out millions of emails. Not only
is spamming illegal in some states, but it also degrades the server
performance.
Click OK. This
completes the basic setup - you should now be able to send and receive
email in Eudora.
