Email programs are how you get your mail off of your Internet providers
server. Eudora was one fo the first, now there are many choices with a
wide range of features and prices. Hopefully, we'll take some of the
mystery out of getting and processing your email in this topic.

I'm actually having trouble with my Spring e-mail address.
I've been using the e-mail address from my ISP for most things, but that is dying at the end of the month, and I need to figure out how to use my www.spring.net address fully.
I have no trouble collecting things from my mailbox, but I don't seem to be able to send any mail using that address. I'm using Netscape 3.0's Mail program. I have it set:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server = www.spring.net
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server = anneh@www.spring.net
POP3 Username = anneh@www.spring.net
(Those work to receive mail, but not to send it--are they right?)

anne, is your email address here anneh@www.spring.net??
if so, then just from eyeballing your info above, you need to enter
www.spring.net for both the POP3 and SMTP server name. also, your
username for the POP3 server will be just anneh and not anneh@www.spring.net.
give it a shot and let us know if it works.

Nope! It bounced back at me again (I can still get mail, I just can't send it).
My settings are now (yes my e-mail address is anneh@www.spring.net):
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server = www.spring.net
Incoming Mail (POP3) Server = www.spring.net
POP3 Username = anneh

anneh, let me get with terry on this. i think we need to set up
a different mail account for you, and i need to ask him which servers
do what jobs.
a problem with outgoing mail means that your SMTP server is not
set correctly, and i may have to go in and create a new account for
you on the spring's mail server(s).

Thanks, Ray! (I do have a backup mail account with Yahoo, but I'd like to get this worked out.)
