How do I use Netfirms Webmail to send and receive email?

The following tutorial will assist you in using Netfirms Webmail to send/receive and manage your email from anywhere in the world:

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. GETTING STARTED
1. To access your inbox, click "INBOX"

2. To compose a new message, click the Compose link

IMPORTANT: If you are using Webmail, please ensure that you save your work as Draft every few minutes in case the webmail session should time out. Most of our webmail users are comfortable with our standard 20 minute timeout period. That is, after about 20 minutes of inactivity, your webmail session will automatically timeout/disconnect. This is a safe-guard measure to protect our user community from unauthorized Webmail usage in case a user should walk away from their desktop without logging out. To save your email as draft, simply click the "Save Draft" button while composing your email.

(a)complete the "To" field with an email address or addresses that you wish to send to. Or click the "Addresses" button if you have an address book of email addresses.
(b)Complete the "CC" field with an email address or addresses that you wish to carbon copy to. Or click the "Addresses" button if you have an address book of email addresses.
(c)Complete the "BCC" field with an email address or addresses that you wish to blind copy to. Or click the "Addresses" button if you have an address book of email addresses.
(d)Enter a subject in the "Subject" field
(e)Choose a Priority using the pull-down menu. Normal is the default.
(f)If you wish to receive a notification when your message has been read or delivered, choose either the "On Read" or "Delivered" checkbox accordingly.
(g)In the main text box, enter your message.
(h)If you wish to Save a draft copy of the message and return to it later, click the "Save Draft" button.
(i)If you wish to attach a file (eg. a document) to your message, click the "Browse" button beside the "Attach" field. You will then be prompted to locate the document from your local machine. When you have chosen the document, click the "Open" button and then the "Add" button.
