I've not set up a mail program in years. I think I've got most it, yet I can not send and I can not receive. I have till the 30th to back up my account, and I need it in format that the Amiga can work with.

Anyone know how to pull this off?

Thankx!

Really? No one does this?

Thank you, I gathered that info from Google, but am not quite sure how to set it all up in YAM specifically.

Anyhow, in the mean time I created a new Gmail account and am busy downloading all my web page, and updating my accounts and such to use my new e-mail address.

VERY annoying. Microsoft pisses me off! I've had this web page and address for years, now all of a sudden I have to transfer to a new package which is not an easy process by any means, so I figure screw it, I'll let them shut it down and create a new web page with a new domain provider at another date.

In the mean time, the Star Wars Legacy project will continue, all but underground! ;)

If you're using GMail I made the following screenshots to help you out for YAM :)

1. You Right click the Menu and choose Configuration



2. In the "First Steps" tab you fill the following info



3. In the "TCP/IP" tab you fill the following info accordingly



If you don't mind deleting email from GMail after fetching them, you could enable the "Delete mail on server" option.
