1. You can either choose either POP3 or IMAP from the drop-list for your Incoming Mail Server. Please note that once you set this (saved the preference), it cannot be changed and have to redo entire setup if type in incorrect settings and finish setup.

• POP3 means that all emails will mean that once the email(s) have been downloaded from the server, the server copy will be erased.
  • There can only ever be one copy of email. For example if setup someone@internetnextstep.com on two computers and download them from computer1 you cannot go to computer2 and re-download them.
• However with IMAP you can. Download on to both computers and when you are ready - purge all (this is a delete command - so cannot download again to either computer). You do this by clicking on the messages you want to delete then select Delete from the toolbar.
  • Go to Edit > Purge Deleted Messages. Note that once this is done messages cannot be recovered.

2. Set the Incoming Mail Server and the Outgoing Mail Server as the same - mail.yourdomain.

• if I am someone@internetnextstep.com, I would type in mail.internetnextstep.com for the Incoming and Outgoing Mail Server).
