If using MS Outlook or Outlook Express, you will need to enter the full user name, as in:somebody@dslr.net
Note: All lower-case letters • password - your site password
• pop server - mail.dslr.net
• smtp server - mail.dslr.net
The pop server has to see
• username: somebody@dslr.net
• password: (whatever)
With Eudora, you will need to use the complete email account name in the "login name" box:
INITIAL SETUP OPTIONS
Minimum config:
• One only externally forwarded name
Any config:
• One only of a pop3 or imap or webmail box
Any config:
• "N" more externally forwarded names
• "N" more aliases for the only pop3/imap or webmail box
A webmail box is a pop3 box that is not supported by the pop3 server, can only be got at via our local webmail interface (to come).

You may change your main name (base name if you will) by deleting it, then starting again.
If you change your username on the site, nothing is changed in the mail system. You retain your originally chosen name and aliases.
There is no way to migrate an existing pop mailbox with uncollected mail to a new name. You must delete and start again.

Initially, your password for the DSLR Mail account is the same as your site password.
However - Your password at DSLR is limited to 12 characters ... characters beyond that are ignored. For the POP server, just enter the first 12 characters of it, or change to a 12 character password on DSLR.

If you change your site mail address to your @dslr.net address, you will find two new fields on your Members->Account page. These are "secret question" and "secret answer" as illustrated below. They will be used as a password recovery alternative.
The secret question field length is very short right now, but that will be remedied later. Additionally, the password recovery process for those who fill these out is not functioning at this time, but will be completed later as well.

Go to the DSLR Mail page and follow the directions. Your registered DSLR/BBR user name has been reserved for your use as a mailbox. You must be a Premium member to access this feature.
Please note: Regardless of the case of your DSLR user name, you must enter it in lower case when creating your mailbox.
You will see the following screen, once you have agreed to the TOS:
Here, you may elect to set your email account up as an alias, a POP3 account, for forwarding only, or an IMAP box (not available yet).
