We do not support Eudora as an IMAP client. The IMAP functionality doesn't seem very robust in our environment. However, a number of people prefer it for home use, since we supported Eudora as a POP client for a number of years.

We do not support, nor recommend, Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express. Both of these email clients have a number of problems with non-Microsoft mail servers, which may cause you to lose your email. In addition, most versions of both programs have a number of security problems which can allow viruses into your computer.

2. Enter your name and CLASnet email address.
3. Select IMAP and enter the IMAP and SMTP server names (see below).

If the wizard doesn't appear, then you already have an account configured, and you'll need to modify your setup. Either way, take a look at these snapshots:

1. Under the Tools menu, select Account Settings.
2. Un-check the Compose messages in HTML format.
   It doubles the size of your messages and makes it difficult for people using text-only mail clients.
3. Select Server Settings within your account settings.
   Ensure you configure the following options:

   Server Name	imap.clas.ufl.edu
   User Name	Your CLASnet username
   Use secure connection (SSL)	Yes
   Check for new messages	0 minutes
   Empty Trash on Exit	Yes

4. Select the Advanced button.

   IMAP server directory	Mail/
   Show only subscribed folders	Yes
   Server supports folders that contain sub-folders and messages	No
   Max number of server connections	2

5. Close the Advanced screen, then select the Outgoing Server (SMTP) option.
   Under Server Name, you'll need to put the correct mail server for your ISP. Note that you can't just choose one at random -- to prevent SPAM, each ISP restricts SMTP connections, so only their own users can access the server.
