Eudora Setup

Eudora 5 Email Setup

If you want to access your email directly from your domain rather than redirecting the mail to an existing email account, we recommend using an email program like Eudora as your email client.  This is an email program that runs under Windows and Macintosh OS.  See your program documentation for instructions on how to set those up.

Eudora connects to the mail server over the Winsock or Macintosh TCP/IP. Mail may be composed and read offline, but make sure that you are online before attempting to send or receive email.

Please Note: Although your account exists on our server, you won't be able to receive email at yourname@yourdomain.com until your domain is transferred.

1. Download and install Eudora 5.1
2. From the Menu bar select "tools" and then "options"

3. Select "getting started" in the options Menu

4. In "Real name", enter the name you would like to see when sending e-mails
5. In "Return Address", enter the email address you wish to send mail from: name@yourdomain.com
6. In "Mail Server (Incoming)", enter yourdomain.com.
7. In "Login Name", enter the User name of your account.
8. In "SMTP Server (Outgoing)", enter in yourdomain.
9. Click OK
10. Click on the "checking Mail" tab.
11. Enter your domain name as the mail server and enter your username in the login name section. You may also want to select the save password box.

Testing your e-mail:

Select "Check Mail" under the File menu.

Enter your password into the Password Window that pops up, then click on the Proceed button.
Eudora will check to see if you have email.

You can now send a test email message to yourself and then check to see if it gets returned to you.  If you checked "Save Password", Eudora will not prompt you again for your password after the first time.

Note: Your default email address is yourdomain@yourdomain.com This is where all of your email will be sent to, unless other configurations take priority (such as autoresponders and redirects).
