Click on the button below to start the download. Depending on the browser you use, the window that appears will be different.

Just save the file in a location you can remember. (For more detailed download instructions, select your browser  Internet Explorer or Netscape)

You can continue to the next step after the file has completed downloading.

After the file has completed downloading to your computer, find the file and double-click it to begin the installation. Just follow the instructions that appear on the screen to install eNetBot Mail on your PC. For more detailed installation instructions, click here.

The installation program should have already launched eNetBot Mail for you. You should see this icon    in the system tray (at the bottom right corner of the computer screen). If you do not see this icon, you can launch eNetBot Mail by double clicking on the eNetBot mail icon on your computer desktop.

Please remember that eNetBot Mail will have to be running on your PC. You can verify if its running by the existence of the above icon in the system tray.

This step is required for sending mail through the AOL server. eNetBot Mail uses secure authentication for sending mail using AOL servers. The email clients do not provide this information while forwarding your email through eNetBot. Using secure authentication also serves to eliminate spammers from using eNetBot to post spam.

Add your AOL screen name(s) and passwords using the Account editor provided in the eNetBot mail control panel 

A. Double click on the eNetBot icon in the system tray or it can be accessed through the popup-menu by right clicking and selecting eNetBot control panel in the Popup menu.

 

If you do not see this icon    in the system tray (at the bottom right corner of the computer screen), you can launch eNetBot Mail by double clicking on the eNetBot mail icon on your computer desktop.

B. Select Tools menu in eNetBot >> Account editor(Sending Mail)

The dialog shown below will appear.

C. Click on the Add button and the dialog shown below will appear.

D. Enter you AOL screen name (the address from which you will be sending email). Enter the password for the screen name and click OK. Example: If your screen name is bob123, then the information you enter will be:

Screen Name : bob123
Password : bob123's AOL password
Confirm Password : bob123's AOL password

E. Follow steps C and D again for entering additional screen names from which you want to be able to send email.

Note about security

This information collected by eNetBot is held securely (encrypted) on YOUR PC and is sent ONLY to AOL while authenticating your outgoing mail with the AOL server. [Note: Outgoing mail cannot be sent if the screen names you plan to use in the email client(s) are not entered here too]

The AOL password provided by you will NOT be used by eNetBot for any other purpose than to authenticate your outgoing mail with AOL.

Establish a connection to the internet using either AOL or any other ISP - or if you have a permanent connection to the internet you can skip this step.

Step 6 of 9 Open/Start the mail program
