Some users of the
Internet may choose Netscape Communicator
over Microsoft Internet Explorer. They
are both, in essence, the same program
made by two different companies. Beginners
may choose to stay with the Microsoft
products since they are already installed
on many Windows computers.
- Open Netscape
Communicator
- Select Edit
from the bar along the top of your
screen
- Select Preferences
from the pop-up menu
- Along the left-hand
side of the Preferences window, you
will see a list. You will see Mail
& Groups. (There will either
be a + or a – beside the Mail
& Groups. If you see a +, click
in the little box so that you get
a –. When you see a – you
will see a sub-list under Mail &
Groups.)
Under Mail
& Groups…
- Click on Identity
- Under Your
Name, type your full name
(i.e. John Smith)
- Under Email
address, type your
e-mail address (i.e. username@sgci.com)
- Click On Mail
Server
- Mail
server user name =
your username (the name
that you use to connect
to Spectrum)
- Outgoing
mail (SMTP) server
= mail1.sgci.com
- Incoming
mail server = pop1.sgci.com
- Mail
Server type, choose
POP3 (make sure
that there is a little
dot in the circle beside
POP3)
Click on the
OK button at the bottom
of the Preferences window.

Messenger Mailbox
To get or send your e-mail,
click on the Get Msg button at
the top of the Netscape Messenger window.
Your new messages will be in your Inbox.
To write a new message, click on the New
Msg button. Enter the e-mail address
of the person you are sending e-mail to
in the To: field and the subject
of your e-mail in the Subject: field.
Type the main body of your message in
the large white box at the bottom of that
window. When you are done with that e-mail,
click on the button in the top left corner
(it looks like a flying envelope.) When
you are done writing all of your
e-mail messages, click on the Get Msg
button.
