Netscape 3.x (Including the Gold Editions)

Intro -
This help guide is intended for our domain clients only! If you need help with a california.com account, please check out our technical support pages for california.com here.

1. Go to the "Options" menu and click on "Mail and News Preferences.

2. Click on the "Servers" tab along the top.

3. Change the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server to:  mail.yourdomain.com   (where "yourdomain.com" is your own domain)

4. Change the Incoming Mail (POP3) Server to:  mail.yourdomain.com   (where "yourdomain.com" is your own domain)

5. Change the POP3 User Name to look like this:  name%yourdomain.com
Example:  If your email address is  johndoe@yeehaw.com,   you would type in  johndoe%yeehaw.com

6. When you are done, press OK at the bottom.

Please be advised of the following:

  • Your actual email address has not changed, it is still name@domain.com

  • You dont need to change any other settings!

Explanation:
Earlier versions of Netscape have problems sending the correct domain information to the server. Replacing the "at" sign (@) with the "percent" sign ( % ) helps Netscape along in sending the correct info to the mail server.
