TCH-Thomas Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Hi all, In Cpanel I see the autoconfiguration for outlook express, but can I use netscape (7.1) instead? -Thomas P.S By the way, how long do I need to be a newbie as stated to the left? <_> Quote
Head Guru Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 You can use almost any email client available. However, the only auto config option is for outlook express. Personally, I use PM MAIL 2000. You will just need to manually set up your email client. Quote
rayners Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Certainly. Any mail client that can speak POP or IMAP, as I'm sure Netscape can, will work just fine. Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted August 19, 2003 Author Posted August 19, 2003 Ok guys either Im slow or you were just waiting for someone to ask something. Ok, I assume its pop.something.com and smtp.something.com I will use for this incl. username and pw? -Thomas Who should remain a newbie a little while more he thinks. Quote

borfast Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Thomas, the "newbie" thing is from this forum software. The title that appears under your nickname is a rank you get from your number of posts. If you want to get a higher ranking, you need to have more posts. When your post count reaches a determined number, it will automatically "upgrade" your rank Quote
TCH-Don Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Thomas (who is not a newbie), for netscape, The default account user name (your cpanel name) is cpanelname but for other accounts that you create it is name@yoursite.com the server name is mail.yoursite.com Quote
TCH-Thomas Posted August 19, 2003 Author Posted August 19, 2003 Hm. now I get confused, On the help page mentioned above its says not to use mail... -Thomas (advanced newbie ) Quote
TCH-Don Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 Thomas, I used Mozilla to try it, which is like netscape 6. what version of netscape are you using? Quote
boxturt Posted August 19, 2003 Posted August 19, 2003 I recommend that in your Netsape 7.1 that you only specify the pop3 (incoming) setting to mail.****** and not change the smtp setting as Netscape does not like that and will do evil things. Quote
