| | 65 | Go to Preferences, then click on `Accounts` and add a new account by clicking on `+`. Set the account type to be IMAP and enter your email address (i.e. foo@astro.columbia.edu). Click on continue. |
| | 66 | |
| | 67 | For the incoming Mail server, enter `mail.astro.columbia.edu` and click `continue`. At this point you will get an error message saying that it was unable to connect -- ignore this (we'll fix this later). Click `continue` again. It will now ask for the authentication method for incoming mail. Check the SSL box and set it to `Password`. |
| | 68 | |
| | 69 | For the outgoing mail server, set it to `mail.astro.columbia.edu`, check the `Use Authentication` box and enter your username and password. Again you will get an error message, but push on and finish creating the acount. |
| | 70 | |
| | 71 | Once the account has been created, you will need to edit it. Again, from the preferences, choose `Accounts`. Select the new account you have created and click on `Server Settings`. You will need to change the port from 25 to 587. Make sure the `Use SSL` box is checked and `Password` authentication is selected. Click `OK`. |
| | 72 | |
| | 73 | Finally, you will need to go back and put it online by ctrl-clicking on the new INBOX and selecting `take online`. You will get an error because it cannot determine the authenticity of the certificate, but at this point you can examine the certificate and accept it. The same thing will happen again the first time you try to send a message. |
