How can you determine what server is being used to post a messege
here?
You're never too old to learn
something stupid.

Presuming you are familiar with the menu line then go to TOOLS/SERVERS
and ACCOUNTS.

There you will find a section where you put in the username and password
of your news servers and those of your email servers.

If you have more than one email accounts then you will need to put in
all of them and make them accept mail but you only need one pop SMTP
server to send all your email - I think Hotmail (outlook now) and yahoo
are strange - however you need to put in your news server or servers if
using more than one.

I use APN and if you use that then that's all you need unless you
subscribe to a private on then that will have to be energised too.

Quite self explanatory when you get to that bit but keep a note of your
usernames and passwords.

Another tip is to move the Agent DATA folder to another hdd (I thin win
7 does put "my Documents" on another partition however if your My docs
are on another drive (and I advise you to move it if it isn't) simply
copy agent DATA folder and past it in my docs. Then go to the AGENT
shortcut and right click - properties and where is says "start in" hit
browse and find the Agent DATA folder and that's where agent must start
in.

Next make a regular backup of the data folder on a memory stick just in
case....
