If this are upgrading to Netscape 7.0 or this is the first time you are using Netscape 7.0, please follow these directions (you can download a copy of Netscape 7.0 from http://www.netscape.com) and run the installer program. You will be prompted to enter information vital to setting up your Leapfrog Internet email account. First, it will need to know what kind of service you are setting up. You will be setting up an Email Account.

NOTE: If this is NOT the first time using Netscape 7.0 and would like to set up your email account for Leapfrog email, please Click Here.

You should be prompted to enter your name and your email address. Your email address is your username followed by "@leapmail.net".

Netscape will need to know what kind of incoming mail server it will be dealing with, as well as its name and the name of the outgoing mail server. Our incoming mail server is a POP3 server, by the name of "mail.leapmail.net" and our outgoing mail server is an SMTP server by the name of "mail.leapmail.net"

For authentication, Netscape will want to confirm your username. Your mail account username is your FULL email address. Click "Next"

Netscape will prompt you to name this account. This is simply the name by which Netscape will refer to these settings:

Lastly, Netscape will try to confirm all of your settings. They should read as follows:

o Account Name: username@leapmail.net
o User Name: username@leapmail.net
o Email Address: username@leapmail.net
o Incoming Server Name: mail.leapmail.net
o Incoming Server Type: POP3
o Outgoing Mail Server Name (SMTP): mail.leapmail.net

After you confirm your settings, Netscape will want to assert itself as your operating system's default mail client. This means that whenever your system thinks it should create or receive mail, it will call upon Netscape. If you would like to have Netscape be your default mail client, click "yes"

Netscape will now attempt to get your mail. To do this, it will need your Leapfrog Internet email account password. If you do not wish to have to enter your password each time you check your mail, do not mark the box labeled "Use Password Manager to remember this password."

Almost finished!

Once you have configured Netscape 7.0 for email, click here to continue.
