[DM-MUG] Need iMac advice. *7-11-'06, at Clive-!!

[Jerry Heiselman]

Yahoo requires payment to provide a POP3 connection to their servers.  Still
there are certain programs that will allow you to access those accounts
without paying, but I've only seen them for Windows.

For your .Mac account, go to http://www.mac.com and click on Help.  From the
drop-down menu select mail.  Click on "Setting up your desktop email
application" and then "Setting up other email programs".  That should give
you the basic information you need to setup Eudora.
