<
< Nice to see you on the list. I have some questions for you about your
< problem.
<
< Are you using outlook express on the computer or are you going onto the
< internet and checking your mail while on the web?.
<
< This is the only way I would understand you to be doing things at the
< moment. If this is what you are doing, what you need to do is add in all
< the settings for your eircom account into outlook express. I have placed
< below a guide to help you do this then in future you would open up outlook
< express and download your mail from eircom into it.
<
< (Setting up an email account in outlook express)
<
< 1. Open up outlook express.
<
< 2. Use keys "control, shift + letter I" to ensure that you are in the "inbox
< view".
<
< 3. Now press keys " alt plus T" and down arrow to where it says "accounts".
<
< 3. Press the "enter key".
<
< 4. Tab to the "add button" and use the "space bar". A little menu will pop
< open and the first choice here is "mail" just press enter key on this to
< begin setting up the new mail account.
<
< 5. First you will be asked to type in your name as you want other people to
< see it in their inbox. For example: Paul Traynor
<
< 6. Press tab and press space bar on the next button, now type in your email
< address: paul.traynor@xxxxxxx for example.
<
< 7. Tab to next then tab to the first of two empty boxes. These boxes are
< for entering in the server details. First the "incoming server details":
< mail2.eircom.net
< Next tab once more and another empty box type in: mail2.eircom.net
<
< This takes care of the server details.
<
< 8. Now when you tab and press enter key on next you will be asked for a
< user name. This is typically the "first part" of your email address, for
< example: paul.traynor
< It will most likely be already filled in so just tab past it to the password
< box which you will need the password you got when you signed up for your
< email account. When you go to enter in your password here it will go in as
< stars so be careful that you type in the correct characters.
<
< 9. Tab to the next button then tab again to the "finish button" and you are
< more or less done. Just one more thing to configure and that is the
< connection.
<
< From where you are now after you pressed the "finish button" just tab till
< you come to properties and press the "space bar". This will reopen up the
< properties of the account you just created.
<
< 10 Press keys "control + tab" till you are on the "connection tab". Here
< press the space bar" on the checkbox which asks you something like "always
< use this account when sending or receiving mails.
<
< 11. After checking this box just tab once to a little combolist box and if
< you are on a "dial-up connection" then something like "eircom or a telephone
< numer or some such thing" will be highlighted in this little window. If it's
< a broadband connection then you need to have it say "local area network".
<
< 12. Tab to the ok button and press the enter key and then press the tab key
< to the "close button" and press the enter key.
<
< Now you are done. Provided you followed the above directions correctly you
< will have no problem accessing your emails via outlook express.
<
< Good luck,
<
< Paul.
