How to set up your e-mail reader

General Information

If your email reader is Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, or Netscape, you can get specific instructions on how to set up your email reader. Click here to pick one of these email programs.

If your email reader is not listed or for general information, see the following.

E-mail is fairly easy to set up. There are only a few settings required. Your e-mail program will ask for some or all of the following:

• For Internet Performances mail server, the username is your FULL YourEmailName@YourDomainName. Such as YourEmailName@<yourdomain>.com

• POP account is your full e-mail address, such as YourEmailName@<YourDomain>.com .

• Connection method should be ppp or network.

• POP3 server is the name of the mail Server that you use to GET your e-mail. This will normally be mail.iperform.NET. In some cases you may wish to use your local provider's server.

• SMTP server is the name of the mail Server that you use to SEND your e-mail. This will normally be mail.iperform.NET. In some cases you may wish to use your local provider's server.

• MY SERVER REQUIRES AUTHENTICATION. This option needs to be set.

• Save password. This will cause the program to remember your password so you do not have to remember it and enter it. If you are the only person using the computer, this will be more convenient. This is not the secure setting. If you are not the only person using the computer, or there are other security concerns, that you should not have the email program remember the password.

• Leave mail on server. You should NOT leave mail on server.

There will probably be other options that you can set, but these should get your e-mail program going.
