This section describes the processes involved to configure Netscape mail (4.x).

From the menu select "edit" then "preferences":

Your Netscape preference window will open up. You need to select "Mail & Newsgroups" ... Then select "Mail Servers": Under "Mail Servers" you will see several boxes. The first one is "Incoming Mail Servers", click on "add" or "edit" depending on whether or not there is anything in this box.

Once you click on "Add" or "Edit" a new window will open up called "Mail Server Properties". Fill out the following fields as follows:

1. Server Name: yourdomain.com
2. Server Type: make sure that "POP3 Server" is selected.
3. User Name: Your login... ie. john

Make sure the "remember password is selected if you DON'T want to have to type it in each time you check your email. Click on "OK", then "OK" again, and you will have properly configured your Netscape to download and send your email.

Note: If you want to customize it a bit more, under the categories, select "Identity". Fill out the info as you want your receipients to see.
