Add User Information to eNetBot
(Required for sending mail)
|
|
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 (double click on the
eNetBot icon in the system tray or it can be accessed through the popup-menu by right
clicking). 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]
This step is required for sending mail
through the AOL server. Please add an entry for each AOL user account that you would like
to access using eNetBot.
The AOL password provided by you will NOT
be used by eNetBot for any other purpose than to authenticate your outgoing mail with AOL.
