Set Up Eudora To Check Mail and Send Mail (Windows)

Setting up Eudora is easy if you have the right information.

You will need to look through the information you got from your Internet Service Provider.

Once you have it, you are ready to set up Eudora.

In Eudora, go to the Tools menu and select OPTIONS.

In the Options window, you will see several icons on the left. Select GETTING STARTED (circled in red).

In the REAL NAME field, type your name the way you would like people to see it when they get email from you. For example, John Doe.

In the RETURN ADDRESS field, enter your email address. For example: username@optraweb.net.au

In the MAIL SERVER (INCOMING) field, enter the POP or mail server. In this case it is mail.optraweb.net.au

In the LOGIN NAME field, enter the login name given to you. This will be your full email address: username@optraweb.net.au

In the SMTP SERVER (OUTGOING) field, enter the SMTP or Outgoing mail server. In this case it is mail.optraweb.net.au

There should be a check in the ALLOW AUTHENTICATION field. Leave the check there. If you do not see a check in the box, click on the box with your mouse until a check appears.

Click OK. This completes the basic setup - you should now be able to send and receive email in Eudora.
