As shown in Figure 3.16, the Server Information dialog box appears. Specify which protocol
your mail server uses, Post Office Protocol (POP) or Interim Mail Access Protocol (IMAP). POP
servers require you to download email. IMAP servers let you read email that resides on the
server. Most up-to-date ISPs support IMAP, the newer protocol. Also specify the hostnames of
your incoming and outgoing mail services. A single host may fill both roles. If you don’t know
this information, you can obtain it from your ISP. Click Next to continue.

The User Name dialog box appears. Specify the username by which you login to your ISP’s
mail server. Click Next to continue. The Account Name dialog box appears. Specify a name by
which to refer to your new email account so that you can distinguish it from other accounts
you may create. Click Next to continue. The Congratulations! dialog box appears. Verify that
the information it presents is accurate. If necessary, click Back to return to an earlier dialog box
and correct the information. When you’re satisfied that the information is correct, click Next to
continue.
