If you have a main stream account that you want to test that's easy to configure and delete like a g-mail or comcast account then you should go to file and add account. Enter your user name and password and it'll configure itself.

Hi people.There is already mail on my Mac so I guess I will just delete it. It's all mail from this mailing list so nothing really personal and this address isnot my main one.I am pretty sure the store will delete all my info. I am not going to try to reinstall the OS as I do not want to open the CDs. Also, I just don't feellike going through a complete reinstall.Anyway, the only problem I am having now is with sending mail. My ISP justuses a standard pop3 thing with none of that SSL stuff.Also, when I arrow through the table of messages I hear a whole ton of stuff like "blank text blank text blank" before the info about the message. I find this really frustrating as I have to hear so much before the actual message. I also don't know how to close a message window once I open it and return tothe inbox.

I can't tell if there wasno mail to receive or if it didn't go through.I don't really want to receive mail on the Mac as I will just have todelete it all when I take it back.There might be another setting I set wrong, I don't know. It doesn't seemto be able to authenticate.

When you see a password field, it will say secure edit text if you tabtoit, if you want to clear it, hit command-a and delete. just type and ifyou know you are typing correctly, just press enter when done. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sara" <push649@xxxxxxx> To: <macvoiceover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, May 06, 2008 6:08 PM Subject: [macvoiceover] A tad OT Trying to send mail. Hi all. I tried to use Mail to send a message on the Mac.I couldn't get it to work. I hate those secure edit fields. I can't tell what I am typing and I can't even tell if there is any text in there or whether not I am deleting all the text to clear it so I can make sure Iam entering a password correctly.Also, I don't know how to make sure the settings are right. I need touse apassword and username, but not a secure connection I think that's how myISP works. I've never had any trouble with Windows and Outlook Express.
