Opera Mail Setup
|
Step 1:
· Click "Email" on your toolbar. Then select "New Account" or "Edit Active Account"
· You will find five tabs on this menu. Only the first two tabs (Account and Servers) are essential for setting up your account. The last three are provided for you to adjust your personal preferences and are explained in detail in the Help Menu.
This Account tab needs to be filled in with the following:
· Account name: This is the nickname of the account which appears only to you in your email program. (With the Opera emailer you can have multiple accounts, so entering a unique Account name for each one allows you to distinguish between them.)
· Full name: Enter your name as you wish it to appear to those receiving email from you.
· E-mail address: This is simply your full email address.
· Organization: You may enter the name of the organization which you belong to, or you may leave this blank. This text will also appear in the mail header to those who receive your mails.
· Reply-To: Think of this address as your "return address". Usually this is the same email address as entered above. When receipients of your emails reply to you, the "Reply-To" address is used. If you type the "Reply-To" address incorrectly, replies to your mail will not reach you.

Step 2:
· Click the "Servers" tab. The Server tab needs to be filled in with the following:
· Incoming Server: Enter pop3.express56.com
· Type: Select "POP3", which means "Post Office Protocol".
· Port: Leave this setting at its default, which is 110.
· Login: Enter your Login or User name. This is the part that appears before the @ sign in your email address.
· Password:Enter your email account password. This will be shown as asterisks (stars) as it is typed, for security reasons.
· Outgoing Server: Enter smtp.express56.com
· Type: The protocol that Opera uses for outgoing mail is called "SMTP", which means "Simple Mail Transfer Protocol".
· Port: Leave this setting at its default, which is 25.
Done!
