If you have a version of SeaMonkey other than 1.1.x, you can download
SeaMonkey 1.1.7 or higher from the SeaMonkey Download
and Releases page.
To configure SeaMonkey 1.1.x so that you can use it to send and receive
e-mail on Glue or Deans:
-
Open SeaMonkey.
- Select Window from the menu bar, and
choose Mail and Newsgroups.
-
Select Edit from the menu bar, and then choose
Mail and Newsgroups Account Settings.
-
Click on the Add
Account button in the Account Settings window.
-
Leave the first choice (E-mail account) selected, then click the
right arrow button.
-
Type your full name in the
Your Name: field of the Identity window.
- Type your e-mail address in then the E-mail Address:
field.
- Click the right arrow
button.
-
Click the IMAP radio button (in the Server
Information window).
- In the Incoming
Server:
field, type in the appropriate incoming mail server for your account.
If your e-mail account is a:
- Glue account, use imap.glue.umd.edu
- Deans account, use imap.deans.umd.edu
-
If this is the first time you have configured SeaMonkey 1.1.x for
reading
e-mail, then you will also see a section for entering the name of
your outgoing server. In the Outgoing Server field,
type in the appropriate outgoing mail server for your account:
NOTE: If you use an Internet service provider
(ISP) other than the University of Maryland for Internet access, you
must use your ISP's SMTP server (contact your Internet Service Provider
for more information on this) instead of one of the servers listed below.
- Glue account, use smtp.glue.umd.edu
- Deans account, use smtp.deans.umd.edu
If you do not have the option of
defining your outgoing server on this screen, you will be able to do so in
a later step. Click on the right arrow button to proceed.
-
In the User Names window, type your Directory ID in the
Incoming User Name: field.
Click the right arrow button.
-
In the Account Name window,
type a name that you will use to identify the account. For example, a name
like Glue will be sufficient. Click the right arrow button.
-
The last screen in the Account Wizard will show you the information you
have entered. Verify that the information you entered is correct
(including the Outgoing Server Name if you were able to enter that
information during the wizard). If you made any
mistakes, use the left arrow button to correct them.
- Click Finish to exit the Account Wizard.
-
Click Edit from the menu bar then select Mail and Newsgroups Account
Settings.
- Click on Outgoing
Server (SMTP) which is located in the left column of the window. The
outgoing
server settings will be displayed on
the right.
- Click the Add button to configure a new server.
Make sure the Server Name is set to the appropriate outgoing
server (if you were not given the option of
changing the outgoing server during the Account Wizard, this is your
opportunity to make the change).
NOTE: If you use an Internet service provider
(ISP) other than the University of Maryland for Internet access, you
must use your ISP's SMTP server (contact your Internet Service Provider
for more information on this) instead of one of the servers listed below.
- Glue account, use smtp.glue.umd.edu
- Deans account, use smtp.deans.umd.edu
- Click the OK
button.
-
On the left-hand column you should see the name you
gave your e-mail account, e.g., Glue (you may have to
restart SeaMonkey to see this name).
- Click on the Server
Settings entry beneath your account name, e.g., Glue. On
the right side of the window, set the Use secure
connection radio button to SSL.
- Click the OK button.
You can now use SeaMonkey 1.1.x to send and receive e-mail
messages.
