How to setup Eudora for department mail

These instructions cover configuring Eudora version 6.x for departmental email.

• Launch Eudora. On a windows based PC you can do this by selecting "Eudora" located
  under programs in the windows start menu.
  
  
  
• If this is your first time using Eudora the "new account wizard" will launch automatically.
  If it does click cancel to close it. From the Tools menu select Options.
  
  
  
• The Getting Started screen has 5 text boxes. Type your name in the first box.
• Enter your email address in the Return Address box (ie. alfred.bivens@csbs.utah.edu)
  
• In the Mail Server (Incoming) box type imap.csbs.utah.edu
• Type your username in the Login Name: box (ie. ab1234).
• If you are on campus in the SMTP Server (Outgoing) box type smtp.csbs.utah.edu
  -OR-
  IMPORTANT!! If you are off campus in the SMTP Server (Outgoing) box type the outgoing mail server address for your Internet Provider (ie. mail.xmission.com).
  
  
  
• You should not need to modify anything in the Checking Mail section.
• Click on Incoming Mail on the left hand side. For server configuration select IMAP. In the IMAP Mailbox Location Prefix type mail. You should not need to change anything else on this screen. Click OK.

• Click OK on the next 2 screens. You will again be prompted for your password. At this point you should be able to send and recieve email. If you are unable to recieve email at the point or need further assistance contact the helpdesk.
