The length of the email account name must be between 11 and 16 characters

The name may only contain alphabetic characters and numbers, no full stop . hyphen -and  underscore _ characters are allowed

Email account names must be unique to Netscape Online, so there can only be one jonathansmith belonging to netscapeonline.co.uk

Some popular names will nearly always be taken up already so try different combinations e.g. jonathansmith, smithssolicitors or smithfamily

If you have an email account with another Internet Service Provider, avoid using the same account name because this can cause complications with your mailboxes in Outlook or Outlook Express e.g. jonathansmith@OLD.DOMAIN may get overwritten with jonathansmith@netscapeonline.co.uk

If your chosen email account name is not available, the Registration Wizard will display a list of alternatives.  You do not have to choose one of them, and you can have as many tries as you like to choose your email account name.

Password

You must enter a password.  Remember your username and password because you will be asked for them when you want to use that email account.

Verify Password

Because the password is hidden from view, you are asked to type your password again, in case you inadvertently typed something other than what you intended.

Favourite Place

Enter your favourite place.  This is in case you forget your password and need to call the help desk.  The help desk will ask you for your favourite place and your mother's maiden name to check that the account belongs to you.  Mandatory, maximum length 30 characters.
