Helpful Pointers for using Netscape Mail:
- By default, Netscape Communicator will open to the Navigator browser. To
go into Netscape Mail to check, read, and write mail, simply select Mail
from the Tasks menu.
- After you have finished setting up your account, you can set it to check
for new mail every xx minutes. Open the Account Settings screen as described
in Step 2 and click the Servers option on the left side.
- If the option to check for new messages every xx minutes has been set (see
information above), Netscape Mail will automatically check for new messages
periodically while the program is open and you are connected to our service.
If at any given time you want to force the software to check for messages
immediately, simply click the Get Msg button from the mail window.
- After setting up Netscape, it is often helpful to close the program and
then restart it.
