Comment:

I'm a Be-ginner, having just purchased a copy of BeOS 5 Pro (and a copy of Gobe Productive).
I can't figure out how to set my email address. I have read both the User Guide and the BeOS Bible on the subject of configuring Email, but there appears to be no place where the actual address is entered.
I can't figure this.

No, I HAVE the settings and I have entered them. But if your address is, say, wanker@wanabee.com, where do you put THAT?

You would put wanker in the pop user name
put in your password (not secure)
then you have to find out from wanabe.com if they
support POP and if so the address of the account.
It may be like pop.wanabe.com or .net
and smtp.wannebe.com

And don't talk back to me young man! Don't think I
didn't notice the THAT and HAVE. Why when I was
your age....

Young? I doubt very much that I'm younger than you,
dear boy. I'm 55!

Thanks very much for your advice, however.
