Click on Hosts in the left pane of the Options window and you should see something similar to the screen shot displayed here. The only field you need to modify here is the SMTP field. Type in smtp.dcn.davis.ca.us and you are set. Click on Ok to close the Options window. Go to File and then Check for new mail to see if Eudora is set up properly.

Load up Netscape and then go to Edit and click on Preferences. On the left pane, find an option called Mail & Newsgroups and expand it by clicking on the '+' next to it. Click on Identity.

Click on the Mail Servers option in the left pane. In the area labeled Incoming Mail Servers you will need to click on Add... When the new window pops up, you will need to complete 3 fields. Under Server Name, type in pop.dcn.davis.ca.us. Under Server Type, select POP3 Server. Finally, under User Name, put in your username. Optionally, you may select the Remember Password option so that Netscape does not ask for your mail password every time you load it up. Click Ok. One more field to go. Under Outgoing mail (SMTP) server, type in smtp.dcn.davis.ca.us. Click on Ok and you are set. Go to Communicator then Messenger to load Netscape's mail client, and then go to Get Msg to check for mail.

When you run Netscape mail in version 6 for the first time, you will see the setup wizard that you will have to run through in order to estabilsh Netscape 6 as you mail client. It's a relatively easy process that only need you to know of a couple key things. These instructions will show you what to plug in the wizard, and where.

First the incoming mail server area. Make sure that the pop-up menu remains at POP Mail Server, the set the server name to pop.dcn.davis.ca.us. In the Outgoing Server area, type in smtp.dcn.davis.ca.us.

The last critical screen, this one asks for your username, which is the first part of your email address (before the @ symbol).

Follow the rest of the instructions from the wizard, and you should have email up and running in no time. You're done when the last button you click on is labled Finish.

You will need to click on Add and then a pop-up menu will show itself. Select Mail. The Internet Connection Wizard will pop up and ask you for your name. After typing in your name, hit Next and you will then be asked to enter your e-mail address. Hit Next after doing so and then it will ask for e-mail server names. Make sure that your mail server is specified as a POP3 server. The incoming (POP3) server to put in is pop.dcn.davis.ca.us. The Outgoing (SMTP) server is smtp.dcn.davis.ca.us. The next screen will ask for a "Friendly Name" for this mail account, and you can type in whatever you like. For the next screen, you will want to choose Connect using my phone line. The last screen will say "Congratulations!" and you can hit Finish. To see if Outlook Express is configure properly, go to Tools and Send and Receive. Any new mail you have should go to your inbox.
