|---|---|
| This tutorial was written using Mozilla Mail 1.6. This is the same program as the Mail program included in Netscape 6 and 7. Any references to "Mozilla Mail" in the text also apply to Netscape Mail. The Mail application included in Netscape 4 is different, and is not covered in this document. | |
You will need to start Mozilla Mail to configure your e-mail account. Do not enter your password at the password prompt, but cancel instead.
Once Mozilla Mail has started, and you are at the main screen, Choose the option from the menu.

At the Window that appears, you will want to choose your old e-mail account, and go to the server settings item under the account name. If you do not see any items underneath your e-mail account name, click the plus sign to the left of the account name.

In the form on the right of the screen locate the Server Name entry. Change the entry to pop3.phdcomputing.net.
Next, go to the Outgoing Server (SMTP) section on the left, and change the server name on the right to smtp.phdcomputing.net. When you are done, click the button.
Please also make sure the User Name is set to your full e-mail address.
