Configuring Microsoft Outlook Express
You can synchronize a VersaMail e-mail account with Microsoft Outlook Express
5.5 or 6.0, but you must set Outlook Express as the default e-mail handler.
NOTE Make sure your username and password are set up correctly within Outlook
Express.
To configure Outlook Express:
1. In the Control Panel, click Internet Options.
NOTE For Windows XP, click Network and Internet Connections, and then click
Internet Options.
2. Click the Programs tab.
3. Select Outlook Express as the default e-mail program.
4. Click OK.
TIP You can also make Outlook Express the default e-mail handler within the e-mail
application. From the Tools menu, select Options. Click the General tab, and then click
Make Default.
Configuring Eudora
If you are using Eudora as your e-mail application, you must set up MAPI in
Eudora.
To set up MAPI in Eudora:
1. From the Eudora Tools menu, select Options.
2. Do one of the following:
– If Eudora is the only e-mail application that you use, select Always as the
MAPI setting.
– If you use more than one e-mail application, select When Eudora is running
as the MAPI setting.
3. Ensure that your username and password are set up correctly within Eudora.
This information is needed to log in to Eudora to retrieve and synchronize your
e-mail.
IMPORTANT Eudora must be running in order for you to perform a HotSync
operation. The VersaMail application synchronizes with your Dominant Personality in
Eudora 5.1 or later.
