7 - Setting Up an Additional Email Account
Mozilla Mail can help you manage email from multiple accounts in one easy interface.
1. Double-click on your mail.utexas.edu account in the left window
2. Under Accounts, click on Create a New Account
3. You will complete the same wizard you used to set up your mail.utexas.edu account – for the purpose of this tutorial, we will assume that you are going to set up your ischool.utexas.edu account.
4. In the Identity screen, enter your name and your email address: your_name@ischool.utexas.edu and click next
5. In the following screen, select POP server, and for the incoming server enter mail.ischool.utexas.edu
6. The next screen will ask you to enter the Incoming and Outgoing User Names – these both will be your ischool account name. Click Next.
7. Review the settings you designated for this account in the following screen, but do not click the box adjacent to Download message from server.Click Finish.
8. You will be returned to your inbox. In the left window, you will see your ischool.utexas.edu email account below your mail.utexas.edu email account. Highlight your ischool.utexas.edu account; we are next going to return to the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings under Edit.
9. In the new window, make sure that your ischool.utexas.edu account is selected in the left window. Next, click on Server Settings – check the box adjacent to the Use secure connection (SSL) and check the box adjacent to Leave Messages on Server.
10. Next, click on Outgoing Server (SMTP) in the left window. Notice that your outgoing server is mail.utexas.edu – if you are using Mozilla to operate your mail.utexas.edu account as well as your ischool account, the outgoing server name can remain mail.utexas.edu. However, if you are using Mozilla to operate only your ischool account, the server name will need to be changed to mail.ischool.utexas.edu.
11. Click OK at the bottom right to save your settings.
12. You are returned to your inbox; with your ischool.utexas.edu account, choose to “Get Msgs” and your ischool emails should appear.
