How do I setup e-mail using Mac Mail?
The first time you open Mail, it automatically sets up email accounts for you using the information from the .Mac pane of System Preferences and the Mail Setup Assistant. If no information is found, Mail guides you through the process of setting up a new account. You can create additional accounts at any time.
If you switch to Mail from another email application, you need to enter the account information from the other application in Mail. Before you begin, view the information in the other application, and write down the names of the incoming and outgoing mail servers, your account name and password, and whether it is a POP or IMAP account. If you have multiple accounts, get the information for each account.
To add an account:
Choose File > Add Account.
Choose your account type, such as POP or IMAP, from the Account Type pop-up menu and enter the information, based on your account type. If you aren’t sure about some of the fields, check with your Internet service provider (ISP) or mail account provider.
- General information: Enter a description of the account. The description is shown in the mailbox list. If you have multiple accounts, enter something that will help you distinguish this account from others, such as “Tom’s work email.” You must also specify the full name to be displayed in outgoing mail, such as Tom Clark, and the email address to use in the From field when you send messages. For a .Mac account, you must enter your .Mac user name and password.
- Incoming Mail Server: Enter the server (typically a POP or IMAP server) where your email waits for you to retrieve it. For example, mail.example.com. Enter your user name and password for this mail server. If you specified an Exchange account, you must specify the Outlook Web Access Server.
- Outgoing Mail Server: Enter the server (also known as an SMTP server) that sends your email to its destination, as provided by your ISP or account provider. For example, smtp.example.com or relay.example.com.
Further define the new account you have just created. Choose Mail > Preferences, click Accounts, and select the new account in the list.
- In the Mailbox Behaviors pane, select options for storing and deleting drafts, sent mail, junk mail, and trash. The options are different for the different kinds of accounts.
- In the Advanced pane, select options to enable the account, include the account when checking for new mail, to manage offline viewing, and other options.

Barracuda Spam Filter Instructions
Quarantine Summary Report
The Barracuda Spam Firewall sends you a daily quarantine summary report so you can view the quarantined messages you did not receive. From the quarantine summary report you can also add messages to your whitelist, delete messages, and have messages delivered to your inbox. The following figure shows an example of a quarantine summary report.
To quickly deliver a message that is caught in the spam filter, click the DELIVER option.
To view your entire quarantine inbox or manage your preferences, click the link at the bottom of the message.
Managing your Quarantine Inbox
After logging into the quarantine interface, select the QUARANTINE INBOX tab to view a list of your quarantined messages (see image below). When you first start using the quarantine interface, you should view this list on a daily basis and classify as many messages as you can.
The Barracuda Spam Firewall has a learning engine that learns how to deal with future messages based on the ones you classify as spam and not spam. The learning engine becomes more effective over time as you teach the system how to classify messages and as you set up rules based on your whitelist and blacklist.
Clicking on an email displays the message.
Here is a list of the tasks you can perform on this page and what they do:
- Deliver: Delivers the selected message to your standard email inbox. Note: If you want to classify a message or add it to your whitelist, make sure to do so before delivering the message to your inbox. Once the Barracuda Spam Firewall delivers a message, it is removed from your quarantine list.
- Whitelist: Adds the selected message to your whitelist so all future emails from this sender are not quarantined unless the message contains a virus or banned attachment type. The Barracuda Spam Firewall adds the sending email address exactly as it appears in the message to your personal whitelist. Note that some commercial mailings may come from one of several servers such as mail3.abcbank.com, and a subsequent message may come from mail2.abcbank.com. See the section on managing your whitelists and blacklists for tips on specifying whitelists with greater effectiveness.
- Delete: Deletes the selected message from your quarantine list. The main reason to delete messages is to help you keep track of which quarantine messages you have reviewed. You cannot recover messages you have deleted.
- Classify as Not Spam: Classifies the selected message as not spam. Note: Some bulk commercial email may be considered useful by some users and spam by others. Instead of classifying bulk commercial email, it may be more effective to add it to your whitelist (if you wish to receive such messages) or blacklist (if you prefer not to receive them)./li>
- Classify as Spam: Classifies the selected message as spam.
Adding Email Addresses and Domains to Your Whitelist and Blacklist
The PREFERENCES–>Whitelist/Blacklist page lets you specify email addresses and domains from which you do or do not want to receive emails.
Whitelist: The list of email addresses or domains from which you always wish to receive messages. The only time the Barracuda Spam Firewall blocks a message from someone on your whitelist is when the message contains a virus or a disallowed attachment file extension.
Blacklist: The list of senders from whom you never want to receive messages. The Barracuda Spam Firewall immediately discards messages from senders on your blacklist. These messages are not tagged or quarantined and cannot be recovered. The sender does not receive a notice that the message was deleted, and neither do you. The only time a blacklisted email address is delivered is if the same email address also appears in your whitelist.
To whitelist or blacklist senders, follow these steps:
- Go to the PREFERENCES–>Whitelist/Blacklist page. A list of your existing whitelisted and blacklisted addresses appears on this page.
- To delete a whitelist or a blacklist entry, click the trash can icon next to the address.
- To add an entry, type an email address into the appropriate field, and click the corresponding Add button.
Tips on specifying addresses
When adding addresses to your whitelist and blacklist, note the following tips:
- If you enter a full email address, such as johndoe@yahoo.com, just that user is specified. If you enter just a domain, such as yahoo.com, all users in that domain are specified.
- If you enter a domain such as barracudanetworks.com, all subdomains are also included, such as support.barracudanetworks.com and test.barracudanetworks.com.
- Mass mailings often come from domains that do not resemble the company’s Web site name. For example, you may want to receive mailings from historybookclub.com, but you will find that this site sends out its mailing from the domain hbcfyi.com. Examine the From: address of an actual mailing that you are trying to whitelist or blacklist to determine what to enter.
How do I setup e-mail on an iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch?
Click the “Settings” icon and go to “Mail, Contacts, Calendars”
Select “Add Account …”
Select “Other” from the list
Select “Add Mail Account”
Name: Name you want displayed in the “From” field
Address: YOU@webband.com
Password: Your password
Description: WebBand (can be anything, but this describes it well)
Use IMAP if you want to keep mail on the server or POP if you want it to be removed from the server and downloaded to your iPad (IMAP is a better solution for mobile devices and is the default for the iPad).
Incoming Mail Server
Host Name: mail.webband.com
User Name: Full Email address
Password: your password
Outgoing Mail Server
Host Name: mail.webband.com
If the iPad cannot find the mail server, still setup the connection – we have found that it sometimes doesn’t find it during initial setup, but works fine when you launch the program.
Launch the Mail program and give it a few moments to find everything – mail should begin populating in less than five minutes.
