- Configure JoMail to use a Proxy -


A Proxy server is a computer which acts as an intermediary between your computer and the Internet. Everything that you do on the Internet passes through the Proxy server before going into the Internet. You need to specify the proxy computer in JoMail so that it can talk to it. JoMail needs to IP Address of the proxy computer and the port to which to connect on the computer. Proxy server is configured from the main JoMail window.
 

  1. Click on the Options menu at the top of JoMail.
  2. Select Configure Proxy. This should open a window for you.
  3. Click Specify Proxy Setting.
  4. Enter the address of the proxy server. Example: minvera.jomail.net or 209.249.147.161.
  5. Enter the port number. Example: 5250 or 420.
  6. Click OK.
JoMail will act no differently when it is going through a proxy server, other than it might go a little slower because it must make an extra stop before getting onto the Internet.
