1. Launch Eudora Pro 4.
2. Go to Tools--Options.
3. On the left-hand side, click on "Getting Started". The
right-hand side should change to something like the image below.
4. In there are the following settings
Real Name
enter in your name, but it could be anything. It will be sent (along with
your e-mail address) whenever you send a message.
Return Address
enter the email address that you want people to REPLY to you with.
The email should should be youremail@intercape.com or name@domain.com
.
Mail Server Incoming
should be pop3.intercape.com
Login Name
enter the Login Name that will be used to send/receive email from
this mail account. Your Login Name is the same as Your Email Address.
Be sure to type in the full Login Name ending with either @intercape.com or
@yourdomain.com
NOTE: Some versions of Eudora cannot interpret the @ sign in
the Login Name. If you are having problems sending/receiving, replace
the @ sign with either an % or # (example: name#intercape.com or name#yourdomain.com
or name%intercape.com or name%yourdomain.com
SMTP Server (Outgoing)
should be smtp.intercape.com
Note: In Eudora 5.x there is a checkbox for
"Allow authentication". This box must be unchecked.
5. On the left-hand side, click on Checking Mail. The right-hand side
should look like the image below.
6. In there should be the following settings:
Mail Server/Login Name
these should be carried over from what you entered above.
Check for mail every X minutes
if this box is checked, then Eudora will check for new mail as soon as it
is opened and every X minutes as long as it is open, where "X"
is a number you enter--preferably 5 - 10 minutes.
Send on check
if this option is checked, it will send any messages waiting to go out
when it checks for new messages.
Save password
if this box is not checked, then Eudora will prompt for
your password every time it checks for mail. Otherwise, it will save your
password.
7. On the left-hand side, click on Incoming Mail. The right-hand side
should look like the image below.
8. In there should be the following settings:
Server configuration
should be set to "POP"
Leave mail on server
if this box is checked, a copy will be left on InterCape's mail server.
(This could become a problem at some point in the future since you are
only allowed ten megabytes of stored mail on InterCape's mail server.) To
prevent this from becoming a problem, Eudora allows two additional
options:
Delete from server after X days
if checked, old messages will be removed from InterCape's mail server
after X days, where "X" is a number you specify.
Delete from server when emptied from Trash
if checked, old messages should be removed from the server when after
they've been deleted from Eudora's Trash mailbox.
Skip messages over X K in size
if checked, Eudora will not download messages over X kilobytes (typically
attachments). However, these messages will remain on InterCape's mail
server.
Offline
if this is checked, Eudora will not connect. Make sure this box is unchecked.
Authentication style
should be set to "Passwords"
9. Click on OK and then you should be all set.
