Setup

From the Outlook Express window, click on Tools then on Accounts to bring up the menu to add email accounts.

 

Click on New to add a new email account.

 

The Account Setup Assistant begins. Enter your name and click on the arrow on the bottom right hand corner to continue.

 

Enter your email address as shown, then click on the arrow on the bottom right hand corner to continue.

 

Your incoming mail server is a POP server. Enter the name of the Incoming mail server as pop-server.hawaii.rr.com and your Outgoing mail server as smtp-server.hawaii.rr.com . Click on the arrow on the bottom right hand corner to continue.

 

After Account ID, enter your Road Runner User Name. THIS IS IMPORTANT: The User Name you type here will determine which e-mail account you will be retrieving mail for. If you are setting up this program to retrieve mail for your Master User e-mail address, you must type in your Master User ID (e.g. alohaj001). If you are setting up this program to retrieve mail for a Sub User e-mail address, you must type in your Sub User name.

 

Enter a name that is descriptive for you (in this example John's Account) then click Finish. Now OE5 will reference the account you've just created as "John's Account". This is especially helpful if you plan on setting up OE5 for use with multiple e-mail accounts because it will help you easily distinguish your various accounts. You have just setup an e-mail account in Mac OE5 and are ready to send and receive mail!
