If you aren't already in the preferences section of Netscape then click the edit menu at the top and choose preferences. You will get the window pictured below. Click the plus sign (+) sign to the left of Mail & Newsgroups to configure the mail. Highlight "identity" to see the window below. The "your name" box is what people will see as the sender when you send e-mail. This does not have to match their e-mail username to work. Input the e-mail address. Make sure that you do not add any spaces or spell out "at" instead of "@" because some people will do that.

Click to highlight "Mail Servers" to see the next screen. This screen may vary with older versions of Netscape Communicator but they will essentially be the same.

Netscape 4.X can only handle one e-mail account per profile. Thus, you will not be able to setup more than one incoming mail server. Delete any old settings or click the edit button to update an old setting. Set the "Outgoing mail (SMTP) server" as smtp.myosseo.com and the "Outgoing mail server user name" as your full email address (username@myosseo.com). Give us a call at aren't sure what information is needed for these boxes. Whether you "add" a new mail account or "edit" an old one, you will still see the screen below. The server type is always POP3. Don't set the check for new messages time frame to under five or ten minutes. Otherwise, your computer will be constantly checking the e-mail and it's performance will degrade from all of the extra system overhead.

If you select the "POP" tab then you get an option to leave messages on our mail server. This is generally a bad idea. Customer e-mail folders are limited in size. Their e-mail performance will also "bog down" if there is a lot of old mail in their directory. Also, there is a chance that Netscape Messenger will mistakenly see old messages and assume that there are no new messages. [Outlook Express does this.]
