General mail settings
(Last modified Aug 28, 2002 )
Email clients can ask for the same information in lots of different ways. But every email client requires the same information in order to work. Here is the general information that an email client will need.
Mailbox
The mailbox is the full email address of the email account that you want to check. So if you want to check your mail at bob@abc.com, then the mailbox name would be bob@abc.com. This can be called several different things: "mailbox", "account", "user name", etc.. But these are all names for the same piece of information.
Incoming mail server
There are two things to specify here. The first is the type of incoming mail server--this is POP3.
The second thing to specify is the name of the incoming mail server.
mail.abc.com
Outgoing mail server
Your outgoing mail server--also called the SMTP server--will be the one assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact your ISP for the name of their SMTP server.
Should you find that your ISP will not provide you with this information or that they don't support SMTP servers, contact support@allentech.net for other alternatives.
