the Claris email program with my FireFly
email address for Macintosh?

opened, refer to the Setup pull-down menu
and choose Internet Setup. A dialog box will
appear labeled Internet Service Entry, with
several fields and settings to configure.
2. For the Account Name,
please input your FireFly email name. You
can also input the same for the User Name

field, you would input your FireFly email
address in the following format, replacing
"emailname" with your specific
setting:

4. With the Email Account
setting, it would be your
"username", which may or may not
be the same as your emailname, along with
mail.fireflyuk.net This in the following
format:
username%mail.fireflyuk.net
5. The Email Password
would be the same password you use to login
to the Internet through FireFly.
6. The SMTP Host should be
set to the following, which controls the
sending of mail messages:

7. The three settings
below this can remain unchecked. Click the

This covers it for setting
up your mailbox. Following are details for
sending and receiving email with Claris.
Checking Email
In order to check for
incoming messages, please refer to the Mail
menu, and then select the option Connect
Now. A dialog box will then appear, and once
it does, click the Connect button. The
program will then retrieve any new messages
delivered to your mailbox.
From there, another dialog
box will appear, with your messages listed
in order of receipt. To view, double-click
on the message.
Sending Email
In order to send an email
message, please refer to the Mail menu, and
then select the option New. A dialog box
will then appear where you input who you're
sending the message to, the subject of the
message, and the message itself.
Within the Subject field,
type in the subject of your message. For the
Recipient field, you would input the first
and/or last name, or nickname, for the
person you are sending the message to. The
Email Address field should include the email
address for the person you are sending the
message to.
Once these fields are
complete, type the message you wish to send
in the large space below. Once completed,
click the Send Now button at the top of the
