Most e-mail software supports the POP and SMTP e-mail standards for sending and receiving e-mail.
There are five primary settings that you will need to configure in your e-mail software to use your Auromail.net account:
| 1. | User Name (also called Account Name or User-ID): | You must use your complete e-mail address: myname@auromail.net. (Don’t use just the part before the @.) |
| 2. | Password: | Your password. This is the password that you assigned yourself when you changed it. |
| 3. | Incoming Mail Server (POP): | pop.everyone.net |
| 4. | Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): | smtp.everyone.net |
| 5. | Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) Authentication: | In order to send e-mail, you must set your e-mail software to use authentication when connecting to the outgoing mail server. (In Outlook Express, you have to check the My Server requires authentication box.) If your e-mail software asks you to enter a username and password, enter the same username and password that you entered in settings 1 and 2, above. |
