For 3 days I have been trying to move Lunarpages email program from Eudora to Mac Mail but seldom get past the incoming mail server.  I replace (mail.yourdomain.com)  with my Lunarpages domain name but continually get the unable to connect error message.   I have forged on and  put the proper domain in for the  outgoing but nothing has worked. I can't receive; I can't send.

In desperation I decided to spend a few  bucks and signed up with MacHighway  as they said they were Mac Friendly.  Sure enough they sent me step by step directions specifically for my new domain account ( and what to do if this or that didn't work).  I was up and running in a few minutes.
I signed up with Lunarpages four years ago mainly because they had a forum. I sure need you now as I am getting disillusioned. Grr..!!

Never had a problem with incoming setup on Mail.app

INCOMING ACCOuNT INFORMATION
POP3 server
Incoming server   mail.yourdomain.com
username              you@domain.com
password             whatever

->ADVANCED TAB
Port 110
USE SSL  unchecked
Authentication      password




OUTGOING              I usually use my ISPs mail server, but I've also used LPs


This is my home 10.6 settings, if I remember correctly my 10.4 work setup is worded a little differently . . .
server name         mail.yourdomain.com

->ADVANCED TAB
USE default ports
Use SSL checked
Authentication       password
username           your account username
password          your account password

Thanks - I think I’ve got it working. Applause  But where do you find the Incoming Advanced Tab?  Sad-  I’m using Snow leopard.

Sorry I forgot you . . . if you go to the Outgoing Server popup and select Edit Server List you get this dialog
