Setting up Email in Netscape Communicator

1. To set up Netscape Communicator for an email address, click on Edit at the top of the screen and choose Preferences. You will now get a Preferences window. Click the + beside Mail & Groups.

2. Now choose Identity. Type in your name under name, the email address you want to set up under email address, and any of the other options you may want.

3. Next click on Mail Server. For user name, you should usually use the first part of your email address (ie. John_S@ISP.com would probably have a user name of John_S).

4. The next step is to set the outgoing and incoming mail servers. These are usually the same, but not always. Common server names are mail.domain.com. The geocities mail server is mail.geocities.com.

5. Finally, click OK and your email is setup. More advanced options can be chosen, but these basic settings will work fine.
