I use OutLook XP for my all my email requirement and am *really* happy. However, one of my long term client is wanting to switch from Outlook Express to Netscape Messanger and I have no idea how to make the change or how to setup *multiple* email accounts at Netscape.

I was wondering if anyone can help, also if there are any url where there is graphical explanation, than it would be great.

Thanks for all the help.

NeedScripts,

Since no-one else has replied, I'll take a shot...

It's been a long time since I set up a Netscape 4.7x e-mail client, but as I recall, it was all fairly straightforward - I just played with the e-mail settings in the Netscape Messenger->Edit->Preferences tabs until it worked.

You can cut and paste the POP and SMTP server info directly over from Outlook, and that helps avoid the most common problems.

Give it a try using a "free" e-mail account like Hotmail or Yahoo! Mail before taking on the customer job. Once you get it working once, it's not so tough to do it again.

Good luck,
Jim
