• Return Address: your e-mail address
• Mail Server (Incoming): "pop.registeredsite.com"
• Login Name: popID@yourdomain.com

These instructions were generated using version 5 for Windows 2000/98/95/NT. Menus may be slightly different if you are using a different version. For more information, visit Eudora's website at http://www.eudora.com.

1. Open Eudora. The Options window will display. If not, click Tools on the menu bar then Options.

2. Scroll to the top of the list and Select Getting Started.

3. Complete the fields:

• Real Name - The name from which any e-mail sent using this profile will display.

• Login Name - Your user name (i.e., if your user name is bob@yourdomain.com, then login name is "bob").
