Members of the South Texas Art Therapy Association may obtain e-mail addresses
in the form of ‘username@stxarttherapy.org’ and 10 MB of e-mail
storage space on the server. Contact the webmaster by e-mail: Margaret
Wheeler to request your e-mail address. Specify the username you want.
The webmaster will establish an e-mail address for you and provide
you with a temporary password. The following procedures
are necessary to use your e-mail address:
Establishing a Password
You may change your temporary password to a password of your
choice by going to http://webmail.stxarttherapy.org.
Click on “Mail Password Requirements”. Develop a proposed
password following the rules given on this page. You should also avoid
using common dictionary words or proper names within the password.
Go back to the main menu and click on “Mail
Administration”. Fill in the form that appears. For “User
Account”, delete “postmaster” and enter your username.
For “Domain Name”, enter “stxarttherapy.org”.
For “Password” enter your temporary password. Click on “Login”.
Another form comes up which allows you to change your
password. After filling it out, click on “Modify User”. When
a notice of confirmation appears, you may close the screen.
Please note that this same form can be used to forward your
e-mail to another address or to send an “on vacation” message
to your e-mail correspondents when you plan to be out of town and not
answering e-mail.
Accessing Your E-Mail
You can send, receive and store e-mail by either of two methods: webmail
(a dedicated internet site) or by configuring your own e-mail program
(such as Outlook Express, Netscape Communicator, Mac Mail, Eudora, etc.)
Webmail
After logging onto the internet, go to http://webmail.stxarttherapy.org.
and click on “Squirrel Mail”. In the screen that appears,
enter your full e-mail address under “Name” and enter your
password. Click on “Login”. A complete e-mail browser with
your e-mail will appear.
Configuring Your E-mail Program
As an alternative or in addition to the Webmail option, you can configure
your own e-mail program to receive and send mail with your new address.
Open your e-mail program and configure it to add a new e-mail account.
In Outlook Express, you will do this by clicking on “Tools”
and then “Accounts”. With other e-mail programs, you may
find the configuration screens under “Preferences” or “Options”
or “Accounts”.
You will need the following information to fill out the “new
account” form:
Type of Account: POP3
Incoming Mail Server: pop.stxarttherapy.org
Account Name or Login Name: Enter your full e-mail address.
Password: Enter your stxarttherapy e-mail password.
Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.stxarttherapy.org
