How do I configure an address book in Netfirms Webmail?

The following tutorial will assist you in using Netfirms Webmail to manage your address book:

I. WEBMAIL LOGIN
To login to Netfirms webmail, please browse to http://webmail.yourdomain.com (where yourdomain.com is your registered domain hosted by Netfirms)

II. MANAGING YOUR ADDRESS BOOK
1. To add/remove/edit email addresses in your address book, click the "Addresses" link.

2. Here are a description of the fields and buttons:Nick Name: Put a familiar name here. Something to help jog your memory. Anything that will give you an accurate idea to whom this email address belongs.

Email Address: This must be the person's fully qualified email address. Guessing here just won't cut it. There are three parts to an email address. First is the recipients identifier, such as "johnq". Next is the domain name section, which could take the form "tayloru". Last comes the top level domain, which could be one of a ton of things like au, cc, us, com, org, net or might look like edu. So if we put all those together it must be in the form of johnq@tayloru.edu. If this is not correct you are likely to get your mail back in the form of a bounced message.

Additional info: This is another field where you can put something to remind you about who this person is. This is made to be longer than the "Nick Name". For instance, if you meet a business contact, you could put "Met at the Tomatoe Symposium".

Edit selected or Delete selected: These two buttons allow you to select a single address and then change any of the above fields, or delete the entry entirely. You are only allowed to select one entry at a time for the edit button.

Add address: Fill in the fields as they are listed. The first three (Nickname, E-mail address, and First name) must be filled in. Both Last name and Additional info are optional.
