Email (Mac Os X)
The following page describes how to configure Apple’s Mail
application in order to run outgoing SMTP and incoming POP mail through
T-Booster.
You may wish to back up your current mail preferences (~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist)
before proceeding.
Note: screenshots below may be slightly different for newer or older
versions of T-Booster Client application.
1. In T-Booster Client mapping panel click "POP Server [Incoming mail sample]" to configure for incoming mail. Fill in host name for your POP server, for example mail.example.com. The remote port is actual port of your POP server – it will be 110 in most cases. You also have to choose unique local port number. It needs to be greater than 1024, and should not conflict with anything else running on your machine. In our example we use default port number 8110. Click "Apply" button. |
|
|
2. Now we have to configure for outgoing mail. Click "SMTP Server [Outgoing mail sample]" and fill in server host name and port numbers. We use standard remote port 25 and unique local port 8025. Click "Apply" button. |
|
|
|
3. Open Preferences in Mail, and go to "Accounts".
Under Account Information, change "Incoming Mail Server" to 127.0.0.1. |
|
|
4. Change "Outgoing Mail Server" to 127.0.0.1, and "Server Port" to 8025. |
|
|
5. Go to the "Advanced" tab of the "Accounts" pane. Change the port number to the local port 8110. |
Note: If your mail servers require some type of
authentication, change the relevant settings to match those
requirements.
You are done. Save your changes and restart Mail.
The T-Booster Client must be running each time you want to connect and
use Mail.
