Retrieving email with Netscape Communicator 4.0

Our Netscape Communicator tutorial shows how to setup Communicator to retrieve email from your XyNexT accounts. To configure Communicator, follow the simple instructions below.

Open Communicator and choose "Edit" from the menu bar.

Choose "Preferences".

We will use the example of an account with XyNexT with the following account info:

Domain name:  xyz.com

Userid:  abcdefg

In the tree structure on the left side of the dialog box, select "Identity", which is under "Mail & Groups".  Fill in the boxes as follows:

Your Name:  Your Name

Email address:  abcdefg@xyz.com

Reply-to address:   something@xyz.com

Now, in the tree structure on the left side of the dialog box, select "Mail Server", which is also under "Mail & Groups".  Fill in the boxes as follows:

Mail server user name:   abcdefg

Outgoing mail (SMTP) server: xyz.com

Incoming mail server:  xyz.com

Then click on "OK".

If you have already set up an email account on your Netscape Communicator
and wish add another, you may do so using the User Profile Manager.

Please let us know if you have any problems with this.
