Enabling SMTP Authentication for Netscape 7

This document explains how to enable SMTP Authentication for Netscape 7.x mail for Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP, and Macintosh OS 9 & OS X.  If you are using an earlier version of Netscape Mail (for example, Netscape 6.x), we strongly recommend that you upgrade to Netscape 7.x before enabling SMTP Authentication. 

1. Open Netscape 7.x Mail. From the Edit menu select Mail & Newgroups Account Settings. The Account Settings box appears.
2. In the white area on the left, select the entry Outgoing Server (SMTP). The Outgoing Server (SMTP) Settings appear on the right.
3. In the Server Name box ensure that you have smtp.zamnet.zm
4. Verify that the Use name and password box is checked. Click on the box to check it, if it is not checked.
5. In the User Name box enter your email address.
6. Click the OK button on the bottom. Authentication has now been enabled. Please note, you will be prompted for your password the first time that you send email. Be sure to check the box Use Password Manager to remember the password, to avoid having to enter it every time that you send email.
