Pegasus Mail

If you've never used Pegasus before, you can familiarize yourself with it by selecting Getting Started With Pegasus Mail when you open up the Pegasus folder on your PC. The answers to the four questions are:

A. pop.mm.com
B. It's your 3-8 character username. (Unless it's an extra E-mailbox; then enter the 3-8 character username of the mailbox.)
C. It's your 6-8 character password.
D. smtp.mm.com

To configure Pegasus, select Pegasus Mail for Win32 from the Pegasus folder. A screen like this should display:

Substitute your username for userx and click OK.

A New Mail Folder window may display. There's no need to close that window. Pull down the File menu and select Network Configuration, or pull down the Tools menu and select Options.

In the appropriate fields, enter your E-mail address (for example: userx@mydomain.com), pop.mm.com for the POP3 host, your username and password, and smtp.mm.com for the SMTP host.

For automatic checking of E-mail while on line and deleting mail from/leaving mail on server, click on the Advanced tab.

For the "Check for new POP3 mail every" box, we advise not checking for mail automatically while you're online (every 0 minutes), or, if you do check automatically, set the number to, say, 30 minutes. (NOTE: This does NOT mean you can't *manually* check for mail while you're online.) If you skip large messages ("Do not download mail larger than ? KB"), they stay in your mailbox on our system but never get pulled down onto your computer. If you leave mail on server (that is, if you leave the "Delete mail from host once successfully retrieved" box BLANK), your mailbox can become too large to open (over 10MB). Other options on this page should be OK using the defaults.

When done, click OK.
