Select IMAP or POP3. Net Acceleration suggests using IMAP

- Username - Is the full email address
- Password - your email password
- Incoming & Outgoing Mailservers - These will both be the same, sf.netacceleration.com
- Set SSL to ON
- Set Outgoing/Incoming Authentication to ON

Port numbers - This really depends on your ISP and can be a hunt and peck process. The following ports have been identified as useful for clients in the order of usefulness.
- Incoming Port - 110, 143, 993
- Outgoing Port - 24, 25, 26, 465
One thing to remember is if there is a field labeled as Optional, assume it is actually required. Apple products specifically note a few outgoing fields as such, is incorrect and will throw errors.
