Technical Support - Eudora Email Setup
By default access to RYA Online's e-mail accounts is via the webmail service through your web browser. You can however access your RYA Online e-mail account via a POP3 mail client.
Please Note that if you use a POP3 mail client to access your RYA Online e-mail account, you will only be able to send e-mail when you dial in to RYA Online's system direct. Due to the need for anti-spam rules (to stop unsolicited e-mail being relayed off our server) the RYA Online mail server will only accept e-mail for sending that comes from a valid IP address on the RYA Online system.
We do not supply and so therefore can not support Eudora software, however
we have compiled the following instructions to help you configure Eudora to
access your RYA Online e-mail account.

How to configure Eudora to leave a copy
of the messages on the server
When you retrieve your e-mail, Eudora copies each message from Mistral´s
servers to your hard drive. By default, Eudora is configured to have all e-mail
messages deleted from Mistral´s mail server after being downloaded to
your computer. However, you can configure Eudora to leave your e-mail on the
server. Eudora then keeps track of which messages it has already retrieved.
This feature will allow you to check your e-mail from work, while leaving
it on the server for later retrieval at home. Eudora also allows you to select
a time duration for leaving mail on the server. Setting a duration is important
if you have all of your e-mail clients configured to leave mail on server.
Choose Options from the Tools menu.
The Options window will open.
Select the Incoming Mail icon.
Fig 2
Tick Leave mail on server.
It is recommended to tick the box for Delete from server after option
and set the number of days to 5. You can increase
or decrease the amount of days your mail is left on the server. If you have
Eudora set to remove mail from the server after 5 days and do not check
mail for 14 days, the mail will stay on the server until you download it
to your hard drive.
Click OK.
Eudora is now configured to leave mail on the server.
