Email

First, please take a moment to review our Romanweb Networks Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) regarding email.

What email software can I use with my Romanweb Account?
You can use any POP compliant software that you would like with your Romanweb Email account (most email software available is POP compliant). We recommend either Netscape or Eudora.

I have more than one email box, how do I configure Netscape for more than one account?
Netscape 3.x does not support this feature. The only way to use Netscape 3.x mail with more than one account is to either manually change settings each time you want to switch mailboxes or install two completely separate instances of Netscape (we don't recommend this). Netscape Communicator 4.x, however, will allow multiple users to share a single copy of the program. Look in the Netscape Communicator directory in the "Utilities" folder for the "User Profile Manager" to configure multiple users.

If you do not wish to upgrade to Communicator, you could try using a separate mail program for each mailbox. For instance, use Netscape mail for one and Eudora for the other.

Can I use Eudora for all of my mailboxes?
Yes. Eudora Pro supports multiple "Personalities" within a single copy of the program. This is ideal for one person who has several email accounts. However, it isn't very useful when you have more than one person and each person wants to keep his/her mail separate from everyone else's. Fortunately, both Eudora Light and Eudora Pro support directory switching. This means that multiple users can share a single copy of Eudora and still keep their own personal settings.

How do I setup my email software to access my Romanweb Account?
Make sure you have a copy of your Romanweb Account Configuration sheet. It contains all of the information you'll need to configure your email software:

  • Email username
  • Email password
  • Incoming (POP) mail server
  • Outgoing (SMTP) mail server

In most cases, your email username and email password will be the same as your login username and login password. However, it is important to differentiate between the two, since you can have multiple email addresses with only one login username and password.
