Accessing Pocketmail Messages From Your Pc; Using An Alternate Reply-To Address - Black Box PocketMail Composer Manual

Table of Contents

• Delete Old Email with Rolling Mailbox: This option deletes your oldest email

when new email arrives. By automatically deleting older email, new mail can

arrive continuously without you exceeding your 4 MB storage capacity on the

PocketMail server.

• Forward Mail from Other Accounts: If your primary email account is located

within a corporate network or certain Internet or online services, you can

forward your mail from this account to your PocketMail address

automatically. Contact your corporate system administrator or online service

for instructions. Some email programs will allow you to forward mail from

your PC desktop without the help of a system administrator.

5.4 Accessing PocketMail Messages from Your PC

There are limits to the amount of data the Composer can download from the

PocketMail server. Messages are limited to a maximum of 6000 characters and

cannot have attachments. You may therefore want to download very long messages

or messages with attachments to your PC, using a standard desktop email software

package such as Eudora, Microsoft Outlook Express, or Netscape Mail.

To access PocketMail messages from your PC:

Mail Server

Account Name:

Password:

Visit the PocketMail Web site for more detailed instructions on setting up your

email client software.

Email received by the PocketMail server remains there until you delete it

or for 30 days. PocketMail messages will be deleted from the server

after 30 days.

You can have people automatically reply to an email account other than your

PocketMail account (username@pocketmail.com), by using an alternate reply-to

address. This is useful if you want to keep one primary email account (on your PC,

for example) and receive your mail at that one address.

pop.pocketmail.com

your PocketMail username. If, for example, your

PocketMail address is jsmith@pocketmail.com, your

username is "jsmith."
