Using Eudora for Mac OS X
 

To use Eudora 6.2 to check and send mail from your St. Edward's University account you will need to setup your incoming and outgoing mail servers.

Note: This will only work on v. 6.2 of Eudora for the Mac. If you do not have Eudora 6.2 installed, you may download the sponsored version from http://www.frc.stedwards.edu/installers. If you are updating your campus computer, please contact the Computer Help Desk at 448-8443 to get the paid version installed on your computer.

You will be setting up Eudora to use Secure POP to check your email and to use a process called "authenticated SMTP" to send your email. Secure POP encrypts your password for a higher level of security. Authenticated SMTP means you canl use a St. Edward's University mail server (smtp.stedwards.edu) to send email from your computer from any location instead of using your RoadRunner, SBC or other service's outgoing mail server

To setup Eudora to use the St. Edward's Outgoing Mail Server from any location:

1. Click on the Special menu and select Settings.

2. Click on Getting Started under the left menu.
