| Apple’s Email program, which comes bundled with OS X 10.3 and 10.4, has a nice, easy-to-use interface that makes emailing a snap. Here is how to configure your account to check email through Modo. |
| |
| 1. Apple mail is pre-installed on your system. Click on the Apple Mail icon on your toolbar from your Desktop. |
|
|
|
|
| 2. From the Mail menu on top, select Preferences, you will then get the following screen. Click on the "+" sign to add a new account. |
|
|
| |
| 3. From the Account Type drop-down menu, select POP. You may put in what you like for Account Description and Full Name. The email address is the one you received when you signed up with Modo, or one that you created yourself in cPanel. Press Continue. |
 |
| |
| 4. The Incoming Mail Server setting contains your domain name. For example, the mail server for www.modowebdesign.com is mail.modowebdesign.com. Put in the username and password you were given when you signed up for the account. Press Continue. |
 |
| |
| 5. Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) should be unchecked. Leave the Authentication settings set to Password, then press Continue. |
 |
| |
| 6. The Outgoing Mail Server setting is the same as your Incoming Mail Server Setting. Check Use Authentication and enter in your User Name and Password.

 |
| |
| 9. That’s it! However, we must make one final modification to the account settings after this screen. Click Done to continue. |
 |
| |
| 10. Back in the Accounts Panel, highlight the account you just created and click on the Server Settings button at the bottom of the screen. |
|
|
| |
