IMPORTANT
Email Hosting Orders activated on or after 2 July, 2009, will
be hosted on a separate infrastructure and hence, certain configuration
parameters will be different.
Follow the steps detailed below to use Eudora
to send/receive mails:
1. Start Eudora and on the Tools menu, click
Options.
2. Under the Getting Started section, type the name that you want
others to see when you send a message, in the Real name field. In Email address, type in your email
address which should be of type
user@yourdomainname.com. You need to mention the Mail Server (Incoming) as pop.yourdomainname.com
or imap.yourdomainname.com depending upon the type of account (POP or IMAP) you
wish to set up. Mention your complete email address in the User Name
field. The SMTP Server (Outgoing) address in any case will
be entered as smtp.yourdomainname.com. Check the Allow authentication checkbox.
3. Select POP or IMAP under the Incoming Mail
section according to the server you have specified in the previous section. Then
click OK.
4. Under the File menu, click on
Check Mail
and provide the password for your email account to download the messages.
IMPORTANT
Usually, the port used for the Outgoing Mail
Server/SMTP Service is 25. However, there might be a situation where your ISP
might be blocking the use of port 25 for SMTP service. Many ISPs block port 25
in order to minimize the amount of spam sent using their network. If you are
facing issues sending mails using the default port 25, you can confirm with
your ISP whether port 25 is indeed blocked by them.
To circumvent this, Scubez.Net
allows you to use an alternate port 2525 for sending mails if
port 25 is blocked:
a. Close the Eudora client.
b. Locate the directory in
your computer where Eudora is installed. The directory path would be
something like C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora.
c. This directory has a folder
named extrastuff, which has a file esoteric.epi.
d. Drag this file into the main Eudora
directory.
e. Start Eudora and on the Tools menu, click Options.
f. Under the Ports option, enter
the alternate port number 2525 in the field provided for SMTP Port.
g. Click OK to save the changes.
