Setting Up Your Account with MICHUSA

The following table should help you decide what machine name or account name you should use when you are asked to enter one.

At this point, we should stress that it is very important that you have your software configured correctly. If you don't, what works now may not work at a later date. For example, if you are installing a news reader and need to know what to enter when asked for an NNTP server, you could look in the table for the NNTP Server service, and read across to find the machine name, which would be news.michusa.com, in this case.

As a second example, suppose your electronic mail reader needs to know your return address and your POP account. From the table, we see that the return address should be userid@michusa.com, and the POP account would be userid@pop.michusa.com. Note that in this case, we need to replace userid with your actual michusa.com login ID, so if your login ID was johndoe, your return address would be johndoe@michusa.com, and your POP account would be johndoe@pop.michusa.com.
