Recently I installed OS 10.3.9, after using OS 9.2 for many months.
The new installation included Mac Mail, a mail program to which the
operating system automatically defers, occasionally.
I have been using Email v 2.0.3 successfully in Classic, and before that
for years using previous versions of Emailer, with earlier operating
systems.
When I switched ISPs about two years ago, I installed Emailer account
information in the appropriate box under
Setup->Accounts:
Account Name: Sheafe
User Name: Sheafe EWING
Email Account: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Password:
smtp server: smtp.ca.astound.net
Email Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
These settings have been working.... no problem. HOWEVER, when I
installed Mac OS 10.3.9,
along with it came Mac Mail, and automatic deferral to Mac Mail whenever
I found a link where a reply by email was called for. In such
instances, I needed to configure Mac Mail.
I tried to do so using the above information for my Mac Mail account.
But Mac Mail wouldn't accept the Email Account (POP mail incoming server
account) [EMAIL PROTECTED]
It requires only: mail.ca.astound.net
In the process of getting this straightened out, now all my incoming
emails are ALSO going into the Mac Mail account (and some of them ONLY
into the Mac Mail account , which I do NOT want to happen.
While I'm trying to figure this out, would someone suggest to me just
what the problem is,
and how to make *Emailer* my default mail rather than Mac Mail.
Am I correct in thinking I can make this happen by renaming my Mac Mail
account.... giving it a DIFFERENT User Name? (I've never had more than
one email account, and it's always been the same, with my name, as noted
above.) If so, where in the configuration entries below would I enter a
different user name to create a different account.... one that would
answer ONLY to Mac Mail, and not Emailer.
Here is how my Mac Mail Account configuration entries now read:
Description : [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Email Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Full Name : Sheafe Ewing
Incoming Mail Server : mail.ca.astound.net
Password :
Outgoing Mail Server : smtp.ca.astound.net
(If there was some standardization of configuring email account info,
there would be less confusion.... for me, at least)
Thanks,
Sheafe Ewing
