-
- This program will automatically setup your Internet account
- on the WinNET server. This permits you to begin to use your
- WinNET Mail system in a matter of minutes.
-
- This program works in three steps:
-
-
- 1. Mailing Address Information is requested. This includes
- your Name, Address, and Telephone numbers.
-
- Billing Information is requested. Automatic
- registration can only occur for Credit Card payers.
- Please see TERMS.TXT or press the TERMS button on
- the Billing Information screen for full Terms and
- Conditions of your WinNET account.
-
- 2. With all of the necessary information provided, this
- program will then attempt to connect to the WinNET
- server using your modem with the Communications
- Parameters you provided during setup.
-
- If there is a problem at this step, it is most likely
- due to Communications Parameters settings. See the
- TROUBLE.TXT file for more information.
-
- If successful, this program will transfer your account
- request with Mailing and Billing information to the
- WinNET server. It will hang-up after the transfer.
-
- 3. This program will then pause for about one minute as it
- gives the WinNET server time to validate and establish
- your account.
-
- After one minute, this program calls the WinNET server
- again to verify successful set up. If successful, you
- will receive introductory mail from the WinNET server.
-
- If the set up is not successful, it is most likely due
- to the fact that the System Name that you selected
- when running SETUP.EXE is already taken by another
- WinNET customer. In this case, it is recommended that
- you re-run SETUP.EXE, select another System Name, and
- then re-run WinNET Account Setup.
-
- If all three steps are completed successfully,
- congratulations! You are a registered WinNET user. You
- can begin to use your Internet account to communicate
- with the world!
-
- If you find that you cannot get the account setup program to
- work, please feel free to contact us by telephone for
- technical support. The number can be found in the
- READ_1ST.TXT file. We are here to make your life easier, so
- please don't hesitate to call us.
