  2. From the Special menu, choose Settings.
  3. Click the Getting Started icon.
  4. Fill in the settings as follows:
    • In the Username field, enter your User ID (everything before the @ symbol in your e-mail address).
    • In the Mail Server field, enter ipostoffice.worldnet.att.net
    • In the Real Name field, enter either your name or whatever pseudonym you wish to use.
    • In the SMTP Server field, enter imailhost.worldnet.att.net
    • Leave the Return Address field blank.
