Please follow the  step-by-step instructions below to configure the Netscape Navigator 3.0x  or 2.0x e-mail client to check your Chesapeake.Net e-mail account.  Note that these instructions are specific to Netscape  Navigator 3.04 , but the settings are very similar to those found in  older versions of Navigator 3.0x and 2.0x.

  • Select Options ,  and then Mail  and News Preferences... ,  from the Netscape Navigator Menu Bar as shown in the illustration  below.

Netscape Navigator Mail - Menu Bar 

  • Click the Server tab and fill in the information as illustrated below.
    • You must set the Outgoing  Mail (SMTP) Server , Incoming  Mail (POP3) Server , POP3 User  Name ,  and News  (NNTP) Server fields as shown below.  All other fields on this screen can  be set according to your personal preferences.
    • You should also  avoid setting Netscape Navigator to Left  on server under Messages  are copied from the server to the local disk, then option unless you will be checking your account from multiple  workstations - in which case at least one of the workstations  from which you check your mail should not be set to Left  on server .
    • We recommend  leaving the Mail  Directory and News  RC Directory to their defaults, but you can specify an alternate location for  each if so desired.

Netscape Navigator Mail - Servers 

  • Click on the Identity tab and enter your e-mail address in the Your  Email field  as shown below.
  • You may enter anything  you wish into the Your  Name field,  though your full name is recommended.  This name identifies the  name of the person sending email using Netscape Mail, and will  appear in the From field of any email sent from this program.
