Setting up your Email Program

Qualcomm Eudora

To set up your Eudora mail client follow these steps:

  • Open Eudora in the normal way.
  • Click Tools and select Options...
  • Click Checking Mail from the icon menu at the side of the options dialog screen.

Your current mail server settings are shown in the fields titled Mail Server and Login Name. These settings point your email program to the computer where you normally get your mail. We suggest that you make a note of your current Mail Server host and Login Name settings, in case you ever want to go back to the way it was before!

  • In the Mail Server field, delete the address there and enter the address: pop-proxy.death2spam.net
  • In the Login Name field, enter your login name (the one you normally use to collect your mail), followed by an at-sign (@), followed by the FULL address of the server where your mail is normally kept. The name of the server is usually displayed in the Mail Server field when the dialog box is first displayed.

If it is not, contact the help desk of your email provider (normally this is your Internet Service Provider) and ask them for the full address of their incoming mail (POP) server.

The completed fields should look something like what's shown below:

Eudora setup

Click the OK button. Congratulations, you're now ready to retrieve your filtered emails!

Many Internet Service Providers (ISP's) require that you send your username and password before you are allowed to send email. This is called "Authentication" or "SMTP Auth". To send emails when Eudora has been configured to retrieve through D2S, your ISP may require you to have TWO separate and different login names - one for checking mail via D2S, and one for sending mail. If you encounter problems when sending email messages, follow these instructions for SMTP Relaying.

Trouble-Shooting a Connection:
If you're experiencing any problems when configuring your email program, you should verify that you have entered the correct information, and that D2S is able to connect with your POP mail server. You can use the Verify Connection page to help you with diagnosing and fixing the problem. Please try this before reporting a bug or system malfunction!
