Why can't I send or receive e-mail?

If you are having problems sending or receiving e-mail, it could be 1 of 3 things:

1) Incorrect login:

Verify that you are using lower case letters for your user name and password. You should delete your password and retype it to verify that it is in lower case. Make sure that your "caps lock" is not on.
2) Incorrect setup:
Verify that you are set up properly by reviewing the setup procedures. Click here to go to the Setup Instructions.
3) Bad browser:
Your browser may be experiencing problems. Try using another browser if you have one or download a new browser.

** You should not download Netscape Communicator if you have less than 32M of RAM **
** Download Netscape Navigator Gold 3.04 instead **
** When installing your new browser, be sure that no other programs are running that will interfere with the installation. To do this hit CTRL, ALT, DEL at the same time. This will open your Close Program Window. Close all the programs except, "Explorer" and "Systray".
