-In the POP Account box, type your user name, the "@" sign, and the name of your POP3 host, which should have been provided to you by your ISP or email administrator. For example, if your email address is username@thedomain.com, your POP account might be username@mail.thedomain.com.
- Type in your real name, as you would like it displayed in parentheses after your return address in your outgoing mail. It will also be displayed in the sender column of all messages you send.
- Select Hosts in the scrolling icon menu on the left. Your POP account should already be filled in. Enter your SMTP server name, which should have been provided by your ISP or email administrator (for example, smtp.thedomain.com).

Possible Errors
If you are checking for new mail and log in you may get a message:

Error getting network address for ".thedomain.com" Cause: host not found (11001)

This error message means that you not have entered the correct POP3 host in the POP Account box. The POP3 host you entered is shown within the quotation marks in the error message. Remember that your POP3 host may be different from your domain name: for example, thedomain.com vs. mail.thedomain.com
