Netscape & Mozilla Email Setup




Mozilla Mail comes with all newer versions of Mozilla. These instructions assume that you are using Nescape 7.0 or Mozilla 1.4 (or greater). The configuration might be slightly different for other versions of Mozilla.

1 When you launch Mozilla Mail for the first time the Account Wizard may start automatically. In that case, skip to step 2 below. If it does not, you will be presented with the screen below. Click on "Create a new account" to launch the Account Wizard.
