Instructions For Use

Using JustMail couldn't be easier. Make sure you have followed the above Quick Start--Installation instructions before proceeding.

Logging in

JustMail can be used to access any email account served by your email server provided that your email server is on the same computer as your Web server (sharing the same IP address). The steps that follow will explain how to access an email account served by your email server.


1. Using your Web browser, open the URL on your Web site that begins with your domain name, and ends with justmail/justmail.html. For example, if your domain is www.mstay.com, you would open the URL: http://www.mstay.com/justmail/justmail.html.
   
   
2. Enter your E-mail address (should looks something like: jim@mstay.com), your Account name (the part of your email address before the "@" character; for example, if your email address is jim@mstay.com, your Account name is simply "jim"), your Password, your Incoming Mail (POP3 server) name, and your Outgoing Mail (SMTP) server name. You can typically find all of this information in your current email client application settings -- or by contacting your network administrator. Any or all of these values may be saved to make this log in process easier (see "Changing Parameters" below).
   
   
3. Click the "Connect" button to open the JustMail client window.

Browsing and Reading Mail

If you have any mail, it will appear in a list format in the top part of the JustMail client window. Click to select any message in the upper part of the window and read the contents of the message in the lower part of the window. See the illustration below for more information on the functionality of each of the buttons visible in this window.

JustMail will not automatically delete your email from the server once it has been downloaded to the JustMail client window. However if you delete any messages using JustMail, they are permanently deleted from the server.

Note : if a mail message is over 32 KB in size (including any attachments), only the first 100 lines are displayed and a warning message is added to the bottom of the email body text. Also, attachment files (graphics, etc.) cannot be decoded, viewed, or extracted. Of course any mail exceeding 32 KB, and all mail attachements are not altered or destroyed by JustMail. If you receive a message using JustMail that is too large or containing an attachment, simply leave it alone (do not delete it) and deal with it using your regular email client application later.

Sending New Mail Messages

To send a new mail message, simply click the "Create Message" button in the upper left of the JustMail client window.

Enter recipients email addresses in the "To", "CC" and "BCC" fields. Multiple recipients email addresses entered in the same field should be separated by commas. Enter a subject in the "Subject" field, and type the message body in the text area immediately below the "Subject" field.

In the lower left of the New Message window note the two buttons labeled "10" and "12". These buttons change the size of the message body text for easier viewing on different platforms. The size of the message body text that is sent in your email is not affected by these buttons. In the lower right of the New Message window, note a check box labeled "Self-copy". Checking this box will automatically send a copy of the sent email to yourself when the message is sent.

When you are finished addressing and composing your new mail message, click the "Send" button on the lower right corner of the New Message window to send it immediately. Clicking "Cancel" will delete your new message unsent.
