We support Eudora, a POP client, for Macintosh and Windows. Mail that is sent to you from another person is stored on the central server until your machine requests it. Your mail is then downloaded to your personal computer. You can read, edit, save, and reply to the mail on your machine without tying up the central server. The server then takes care of finding the correct route, sending the letter to its destination, retrying if the destination machine or network is down, etc.
Students can request a POP mail userid online.
Faculty and staff must contact the User Accounts Services office in McVey Hall. They can also help you if you forget your password. There are several items you must set in the Eudora Settings before you can begin sending and receiving mail. Our hints for POP mail have more information about settings. The details of the settings menus are release and platform dependent, so what you see may vary somewhat from this example.
