Mail- any Mac users?

How do I set the Mac Mail accounts so that I can use the IDNet SMTP servers to send when I'm connected to a non-IDNet ISP/line?

I know how to do it on Windows Mail, but I can't see the equivalent setting on the Mac

If no-one here answers, Bill, look out for Tacitus on Netters or ask support, they are fluent in Mac.

Cheers Rik.

I don't need it until next week so I'll see how it goes for a day or two on here.

Wasn't a problem when I used the Acer laptop (Vista), but now I've got a lovely new MacBook

Show off.

Hi Bill

In Mac Mail, choose Preferences then Accounts. In the Account Information tab expand the Outgoing Server drop-down and choose Edit Server List.

Under Advanced, expand the drop-down and choose Password. Here you need to enter your usual POP3 uname+passwd.

Some ISP's block port 25 outbound. If that happens you can change to use port 465.

Cheers
Simon

Thanks Simon, fast response as ever

Thanks for the vote of confidence Rik, but Simon got here before me.....

My pleasure.
