browser's menu bar.
Step 1:
To enable SMTP Authentication in Outlook Express (Version 5 or 6), or
Outlook 2000, while you

Step 2:
Select "Accounts" from the "Tools" menu.
Next

Step 3:
Select the "Mail" tab at the top of the Internet Accounts
window. Click "Properties" to proceed.
Next

Note: If you receive e-mail from a provider other than Frontier, your
account name *may* differ from what appears in the image below.
Step 4:
Select the "Servers" tab at the top of the window that appears.
Next >>>
Note: If you receive e-mail from a provider other than Frontier, your
"User Information" *may* differ from what appears in the image below.
Step 5:
If your incoming mail server is set to
pop3.frontiernet.net, pop3.citlink.net, or pop3.newnorth.net, make sure that
your complete FrontierNet, Citlink, or Newnorth e-mail address
is present in the "Account name" field.
If your incoming mail server is set to mail.ctaz.com,
your CTAZ e-mail address should be placed in the Incoming Mail Server "Account name"
field in the format of:
username@citlink.net (replacing "ctaz.com" with "citlink.net").
Please note, this will *not* change your e-mail address.
If your incoming mail server is set to something
other than pop3.frontiernet.net, pop3.citlink.net, mail.ctaz.com or
pop3.newnorth.net, do not make any changes to your incoming mail
server information.
If your outgoing mail server is set to
smtp.frontiernet.net, smtp.citlink.net, mail.ctaz.com or smtp.newnorth.net, place a
checkmark in the box to the left of "My server requires authentication".

If your outgoing mail server is set to something other than

need to be made at this time.
Step 6:
Select "Log on using", and enter your complete
FrontierNet, Citlink / CTAZ, or Newnorth e-mail address in the "Account name" field.
If your e-mail address is in the format of username@ctaz.com,
change "ctaz.com" to "citlink.net" (example: username@ctaz.com becomes
username@citlink.net). Please note, this will *not* change
your e-mail address.

Click "OK" to proceed.
Next >>>
Step 7:
Click "Apply" at the bottom of the window, and then click
"OK". Next >>>
