Enter the name of your incoming (POP) mail server, such as
pop.mail.yahoo.com.

respectively. If you are not sure about the correct port
number, check with your mail server administrator.
Whether this
account requires
APOP
authentication
(POP accounts
only)
Selecting this check box encrypts your username and
password when traveling over the network. Some services
require APOP to work properly, while others do not work
properly if APOP is used. If you aren’t sure if your ISP or web
e-mail provider supports APOP, check with your e-mail
provider. See“Adding APOP to an account” later in this
chapter for information.
Outgoing Mail
Server
Enter the name of your outgoing (SMTP) mail server, such as
smtp.mail.yahoo.com.
Outgoing Mail
Server Port
Number
The default is 25, the port number most SMTP servers use. If
you are not sure about the correct port number, check with
your mail server administrator.
Whether this
account requires
ESMTP
authentication
Select this check box if the outgoing server (SMTP) requires
authentication. Check with your system administrator before
selecting this option. See “Adding ESMTP to an account”
later in this chapter for information. If you select this option,
username and password fields appear. These fields are
prepopulated based on the account information you entered
previously. In most cases, the prepopulated information is
correct; however, occasionally your authentication username
and/or password is different from your account username or
password. Check with your e-mail service provider for
authentication username and password information.
If you need to enter new information, enter a username
and/or tap the Password box and enter a password, and then
tap OK.
