Setup SMTP/POP Preferences

POP Server: The full name of the system through which you will send mail.

eg: portal.connect.ab.ca

POP UserID: Your user name, login id, alias, whatever you are identified as on the systems named in SMTP Host and 'Domain'. UserID@Domain is the return address used for all the mail that you write. UserID is also used to identify you to your SMTP host when collecting mail. Do not include the domain name only your user id.

Password: Your password for your POP account.

SMPT Server: The full name of the system through which you will receive mail.

eg: mail.connect.ab.ca

Note: If you are using the same host name for retrieving and sending mails then the SMTP and POP must be the same.

eg: connect.ab.ca for both POP and SMTP.

Domain: If you are using a real SLIP/PPP connection, this is the name of your system. If you are using a fake SLIP/PPP you should make this the same as 'SMTP Server'.

Real Name: Your real name, it get's added to your return address.

Reply To: Your full E-mail address user replying to.

Organization: If you belong to an organization then enter the name here.
