IMPORTANT Notes on E-Mail Configuration
|
-
Ensure to configure your e-mail program to NOT leave mail
on the POP server, failure to do so will result in your
POP box filling up preventing the sending of e-mail and
the arrival of new mail. IGS KW reseverse the right to
to adjust any and all features of any pop account found to be
holding old read mail as well as permanently remove OLD READ
mail from our servers, ensure you download and save your
e-mail on your own equipment, it is your responsibility.
If you want the same e-mail on multiple devices, see:
http://www.kw.igs.net/imap.html
-
Do not attempt to check mail more often then every 3 minutes.
-
The IGS KW Webmail system is for checking what is in your
pop3 mailbox on the IGS server prior to downloading it to
your own computer. Webmail is NOT a permanent solution for
using e-mail as it has very limited storage space, you
must configure a e-mail client program to download your
e-mail. This service has now exceeded end of life, use at your
own risk.
-
Please read the following page about incorrect login attempts:

-
If your e-mail address ends in @kw.igs.net, your username is the
portion to the left of the @ symbol. If your e-mail address hosted
at IGS ends in something other than @kw.igs.net, you will need to
check your personal internet information reference for your username,
it is NOT your e-mail address.
