If you have someone that constantly sends you large messages you may
want to ask them to stop.
Installing
Additional Email Software:
If you have a "Family Email Account" or
you want to check your email from another computer you will have to install
ADDITIONAL e-mail software. For Family accounts, your main e-mail account
normally is configured into your Netscape mail software so there is no
need to do anything extra to retrieve your main account's e-mail. To check
your additional email accounts you only need an additional E-Mail software
package to be installed and configured. Below are a few examples of software
you can download and install. Each of the programs has separate instructions
for installation.
Click here for Eudora setup instructions.
You can find additional internet software at the following links:
I Cannot see the body of email messages:
In Netscape Email the bottom window is
the location where the body of the message text appears. You probably do
not see the bottom window because it is pushed to the bottom of the entire
window (See red area below).
Solution: Put your mouse at the bottom
of the Netscape Mail window and as you raise it up you will see that themouse
icon changes to a bar.
Hold down the mouse button and drag
this bar up until you see the window that has been hidden from your view.
You should now be able to read the
body of email messages sent to you. If this did not help you, another problem
is causing your trouble. This only applies to Netscape Email.
Saving
password in Windows 95 Dialup:
If the "Save Password" box is grey and
not clickable:
You need to go here:
1) My Computer
2) Control Panel
3) Network
4) Add
5) Client
6) Microsoft
7) Client for Microsoft Networks
It will then ask you for a username
and workgroup name. Enter whatever you like.
How it works: In order for your password
to be saved, Win95 must have a username to save it to. By loading the Microsoft
Networks Client you will be creating an account for the password to be
stored. This works 99% of the time.
Note: Be sure to NOT enter a
password unless you want to type it in everytime you boot the machine up.

Configuring
Netscape Email
Please read this
section carefully!
After you Install the Cybercom
Internet Access Kit you will already have correctly set up email services.
However, if you want to have your Netscape check another Cybercom email
account you may follow the instructions below on how to change your Netscape
to do so. If you are installing a NEWER version of Netscape this section
will still be helpful but not exact. This example is for the Cybercom supplied
Netscape 3.01 software.

here to see step by step screen shots of the setup process.
If you want to use a different software
package to check your email please click here
and read how you can configure your machine differently.

Using Other Internet
Software
Please read this section carefully!
After you Install the Cybercom Internet Access
Kit you may use any Internet Application you wish to use. Cybercom's Netscape
Internet Dialer will work with any 3rd party application you wish to use.
This section is for those that wish to use other email or browser software
instead of or in addition to the Cybercom supplied software. See examples
of such software below..
The software supplied by Cybercom should be installed
first to ensure your account is in good working order. You should keep
the latest version of the Cybercom software on your machine at all times
even if you choose to use another software package. This is very important
if the software package you choose to install does not function properly.
You are using the lastest version of Cybercom's Internet kit if you installed
it via our CDROM. If you are using an older version you may pick up an
upgrade at Cybercom.
It is important to note that Cybercom pays the Netscape
license fee for each customer we have. We have chosen Netscape because
of it's easy installation, and total compatibility with web site browsing.
Shareware or other "free" browsers with complicated installations were
not chosen to make your experience more successful and technical support
much easier. After you install the Cybercom kit and verify it is working
you may then download and Install any software package you would like to
use. Please note that installing software to be
used instead of Cybercom's Netscape kit is not recommended for all users.
It is only recommended for advanced users that can install their own software.
