11.10.1.1 Add an E-mail Account.
To send and receive e-mail you need access to an e-mail Service Provider. When you open an
account with a Service Provider you need to obtain details of the service such as the POP server and
SMTP addresses, and these details must be loaded into KeyMail before you can use that e-mail
account.
account with a Service Provider you need to obtain details of the service such as the POP server and
SMTP addresses, and these details must be loaded into KeyMail before you can use that e-mail
account.
Note: Details of the actual internet connection are listed separately. This is because it is not
uncommon for users to access the internet in multiple ways, via a different set-up to the default one,
and this arrangement saves double entering account details or connection configurations.

To add an e-mail account, follow these steps:
1. Select E-mail from the Main Menu, or press FUNCTION with 8, anywhere.
2. KeySoft displays
"KeyMail Menu.” Select Set Up Options from the KeyMail menu. KeySoft
displays
"KeyMail Set Up Menu." Select Directory of E-mail accounts.
3. KeySoft displays
"Directory of E-mail Accounts.” Select Add an account. KeySoft displays
"Entry List for Directory of E-mail accounts.”
4. KeySoft now steps you through a list of details of the service so that you can enter details for
each item. KeySoft queries
“Account Name?” Enter the name you wish this account to be
called and press ENTER. Typically you would use the name of your provider, for example,
"Earthlink.”
"Earthlink.”
5. KeySoft prompts
"User Name?” Enter the user name, for example Murray_Thorn. Typically
this is the part of your e-mail address that precedes the @ sign.
6. KeySoft prompts
“Password?" For greater security, you can leave this blank and you will be
prompted for the password each time you connect. Alternatively, type your password. The
password is displayed as you enter it. You can review it before pressing ENTER. After pressing
ENTER it displays as 5 asterisks. Remember that passwords are often case sensitive, so it is
important that you enter the password exactly as you have chosen or been given.

7. You are then prompted for
"Your Name?" and reminded that computer Braille is required. This
is the name that will appear in the From: field when the recipient reads e-mail from you.
8. KeySoft prompts
"Your E-mail address?." Type your full e-mail address for this provider, for
example: Murray_Thorn@earthlink.net.
9. KeySoft now queries
"POP Server?." Enter the POP server address. For example a POP server
address might be
"pop.humanware.com.” The POP server address defines the path via which
you receive mail from your e-mail account provider.
10. KeySoft queries
"Use a secure connection for POP server?" If your POP server requires a
secure connection (SSL), press Y. If a secure connection is not required, press N. The default is
No.
No.
11. Next KeySoft queries
"SMTP Server?." Enter the SMTP server address. For example a SMTP
server address might be
"smtp.humanware.com.” The SMTP server address defines the path via
which you send mail to your e-mail account provider.
