To enter an email account: Select "New Service" below left, then add information below right. You must enter an email address and decide which of 2 types of accounts you have:
WEB-BASED EMAIL: This email is usually free, and almost always displays ads with your email. Typically this is accessed with a browser.
POP3 EMAIL: A more standard email type. These emails typically come with your online service.

ADVANCED OPTIONS:
If you leave the other fields blank, JoMail will attempt to figure out the information based on your email address.
Login Page: Required for access to web-based account. Entering this can speed up the first access to your email, after which JoMail will save the fastest login page available.
Login Name: Required for access to web-based account. Some services require a login name of your full email address, for others it is the portion of the email address before the '@'. If you leave this blank, you will be prompted whenever necessary.
Password: Passwords are encrypted to the disk and only used when necessary to access your email. If you leave this blank you will be prompted whenever necessary.
Destination Folder: The default is "inbox". Incoming mail will be placed in this folder. If the folder you specify doesn't exist, it will be created.
Leave Messages on Server: If this is selected, JoMail will not delete any mail from the server. If you choose not to leave the messages on the server, they will not be accessible from another location. Most email accounts have quotas, so if you are leaving messages on the server it may be necessary to periodically delete message from the server.
Automatic Check for New Messages: JoMail will query the server for new messages automatically if you select this option. Checking email often may slow down some systems, as it will use up some of your bandwidth.
