E-Mail Setup

[pdf version]

E-mail messages can be sent from within the program.  This is useful in e-mailing the results media report file to any media outlets in the area.  The e-mail parameters are set before the e-mail feature is used.  An Internet connection and e-mail program such as Netscape Messenger, Microsoft Outlook, or Microsoft Outlook Express must be available.

When dialup is used through an Internet Service Provide (ISP), the user name, password, and the ISP phone number are needed.  The mail server name is also needed.  This information is provided by the ISP.  Contact them to obtain the information.

The mail server name is needed when the computer accesses the Internet through a network.  Contact the network administrator for this information.
