EMAIL SETUP: OSX MAIL
The examples in this tutorial use "mail.domain.com" as the
POP and SMTP servers. When setting up your email account, use your
Web site's domain name in place of "domain.com". For example,
if your domain name is "joesgarage.com" then your
mail servers would be "mail.joesgarage.com". Your
email address would be "yourname@joesgarage.com".
1. Open Mail and go to 'Mail -
Preferences.'
2. Click on 'Accounts' at
the top of the Preferences window.
3. Click on the + in the
bottom left-hand corner of the Accounts pane to add
a new account.
4. In the New Account wizard, choose
POP as your account type. Type in the
Account Description, your Full
Name and Email Address. Click
"Continue."
5. For the Incoming Mail
Server, type mail.domain.com (where
domain.com is your Web site's domain name). Your User
Name is your ENTIRE email address. Also type in your
password. Click "Continue."
6. On the next screen, make sure to leave
the SSL option unchecked and choose "Password" as
the Authentication type. Click
"Continue."
7. Your Outgoing Mail
Server is mail.domain.com (where
domain.com is your Web site's domain name).
Check the "Use Authentication" box and type in
your ENTIRE email address for User Name and your
password.
Note: Your ISP may require you to use a different
outgoing server. Click here for more
information .
If you have an existing mail server already available/typed in
the drop down list that is your ISP's outgoing mail server, you may
want to choose that instead of using the Q5 Media SMTP server
"mail.domain.com." This server may or may not require
authentication. Check with your ISP for more information.
Click "Continue" to go to the next screen.
8. Click "Done" to finish
the wizard.
