E-mail client usage???
« on: February 02, 2004, 10:50:49 AM »
Currently my primary e-mail is through my ISP, and I am wondering if I can use something like Eudora to access this as I am not very fond of the system they are using.

I will be using my e-mail a lot more now that my position of the last 7 years has been 'reorganized out' jawdrop.gif  and I am 'looking'  doh.gif  again.

I am running a G3/300 w/9.1

Thanks for any assistance.

Yes you can, as long as your ISP is using POP or IMAP  for mail. Most all use POP.

bobk;  who is your ISP?  If it's AOL, there might be some differences, (Harv can answer lots of questions.)

Most other ISPs have POP mail, but the easiest way to find out is call them and ask.
Do not fear your enemies.  The worse they can do is kill you.  Do not fear friends.  At worst, they may betray you.
Fear those who do not care; they neither kill nor betray, but betrayal and murder exist because of their silent consent.
