My yahoo account no longer has any storage limit. Maybe they decided to make it unlimited because of how long I've been using it or it's just unlimited now for everyone or something... Hmm... *shrugs*

There will be a slight delay with the email service as I just realized my nazi ISP blocks port 25 also. I'm going to set up off site hosting to solve this problem. Stay tuned, won't be long.

Mo · « **Reply #33 on:** June 11, 2007, 12:24:37 PM »

Ok I believe I have a work around set up. Everything should proceed fine now. I'll let you know when your accounts will be active.

Ok the following people have their email accounts set up:

elessar
420
Tyr
Hell

please log in using a pop3 email client, ala Outlook express with the following connection details:

incoming mail server (pop3): lucidmagic.net
outgoing mail server (smtp): lucidmagic.net --> IMPORTANT in advanced tab please set the outgoing mail server PORT to 26. This must be done or no connection will be made.

After that log in with your account name, which is the email address you choose minus the @lucidmagic.net. Also please use those same credentials to authenticate to the outgoing (smtp) mail server. DO NOT use SSL (secure password authentication).

If you have any problems with any of this please let me know.
Also you have no passwords setup so please PM me your desired password and I will enter it in.

For the rest of you sit tight I'll try and get accounts set up for you. I'm having a wee problem in that the evaluation version of my server let's me have max 5 users lol. I'll get that fixed pronto.

Seems that a password is require to send mail, so please pm me over that password and i'll put it in.

Okay, Mo and I have successfully e-mailed eachother on the new service!
Although every time I send or receive mail it asks me for my password.

Uh, can I get step-by-step instructions for the pop3 settings in Outlook Express. I've never used it before and I can't figure out how to configure the fucking thing.

FUCK, I HATE BILL GATES! HE IS A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT THAT HAS SINGLE HANDEDLY MADE COMPUTERS IMPOSSIBLE TO USE! FUCK YOU GATES I HOPE YOU ROT IN HELL FOR AN ETERNITY!!!!!

I've been configuring email clients for 20 fucking years and I can't figure out this cryptic Microsoft shit.

There should be a little checkbox with something like "remember my password"?

lol well you don't have to use Outlook

All pop3 clients should be relatively the same.

Elessar Telrunya · « **Reply #41 on:** June 12, 2007, 04:08:54 PM »

Sorry 420, meant to put this up an hour ago, but I was helping a friend with a mission in GW and unfortunately we were stuck with a bunch of dumbasses so it took a lot longer.

Go to File>Manage Identities>Add New Identity.
[attachmentid=1225]

Fill in the information and add a password if desired. When you hit OK, it will ask to switch to the new identity. Say yes.
[attachmentid=1226]

An internet connection wizard will pop up and ask for information. Fill it in as you need to. When you get to the page that asks for the incoming and outgoing server names, fill in lucidmagic.net for both places, and make sure that the Incoming mail is set as POP3. The outgoing should be static.
[attachmentid=1227]

Continue to fill in the wizard's requested information until it finishes.
It may ask you to import previous mail from another program. Select no.
[attachmentid=1228]

Go to Tools>Accounts and switch to the Mail tab. Make sure lucidmagic.net is selected and hit the Properties button on the right side of the panel. Go to the Advanced tab of the Properties panel and change the outgoing port from 25 to 26.
[attachmentid=1229]

And that should set up your account.

Hope this helps!

If there's someone out there who really doesn't want to use Outlook we can use something else.

Here's a link to the Novell download page of the Groupwise client software.

gw701cm.exe GroupWise 7 Client (Windows*) is the file of interest.
With that installed it is simply a matter of loging in with your username and password (blank password should work also). Connect to server: lucidmagic.net the default port of 1677 is good.

Once inside you will have a live connection to your mailbox. You can also change your password from there as well. Also you will have access to contacts and calandars and all sorts of stuff. You can send people appointments also which they can accept or decline. Good way to schedule UW trips that people won't forget to show up for

Also there's a Groupwise Connector for Outlook. I'm not sure what that does, so if someone would like to have a look at it and let me know

You will need to register with Novell to get access to the files, don't worry they are good people...Mormons

Thanks for the visual aids elessar, very helpful.

Well that's not his email address lol
elessartelrunya
check the thread. I'll make a list shortly.

The hint in that error message lies in "no such recipient."

Soul Sojourner · « **Reply #45 on:** June 12, 2007, 07:23:25 PM »

Mission accomplished. All tasks completed. Took me 5 minutes.

My first time using outlook too, hrm hrm hrm... it was pretty staightforward I thought.

If all we need is a POP client, all you Gates detractors can try using Thunderbird:
Mozilla Thunderbird

I haven't used it, but some people swear by it.

Hmm ok it wasn't letting you relay to throbble. In Outlook or whatever, go to the properties of the account and in the servers tab make sure outgoing mail server requires authentication is enabled. Then just use your account credentials.

Soul Sojourner · « **Reply #56 on:** June 12, 2007, 11:20:21 PM »

420 is lost.

Hey Mo I've changed my mind about the webhosting. Sorry if you acted on that already. I've thought about having to renter all that information since you can't cut and paste to and from Word and Geocities Pagebuilder.
If anyone does know a way I'd love to hear!
