Mac Mail v 1.0 (OS X)

To enable SMTP Authentication in Mac Mail v. 1.0 (OS X), open Mac Mail v. 1.0, click Mail and then select Preferences.

Step 2:

When the Mail Preferences window opens, you should be on Accounts. Make sure that your Frontier account is highlighted in the Description field, and then click Edit.

Note: If you receive e-mail from a provider other than Frontier, the Description *may* differ from what appears in the image below.

Step 3:

When the Mail Preferences window opens, you should be on the Account Information tab.

If your Host name is set to pop3.frontier.com, pop3.frontiernet.net, pop3.citlink.net, pop3.newnorth.net, or in.epix.net, make sure that your complete Frontier, FrontierNet, Citlink, Newnorth, or Epix e-mail address is present in the User name field.

If your Host name is set to mail.ctaz.com, make sure that your complete CTAZ e-mail address is present in the User name field, in the format of username@citlink.net (replace ctaz.com with citlink.net). Please note, your e-mail address will *not* change.

If your Host name is set to something other than pop3.frontier.com, pop3.frontiernet.net, pop3.citlink.net, mail.ctaz.com, pop3.newnorth.net, or in.epix.net, do not make any changes to any fields in the Host name section of the Account Information tab.

If your SMTP Host is set to smtp.frontier.com, smtp.frontiernet.net, smtp.citlink.net, mail.ctaz.com, smtp.newnorth.net, or out.epix.net, place a checkmark in the box to the left of Use authentication when sending mail. Your complete Frontier, FrontierNet, Citlink / CTAZ, Newnorth or Epix e-mail address should be entered in the SMTP User field. For CTAZ users, again, your e-mail address should be entered in the format of username@citlink.net (replace ctaz.com with citlink.net).

Your password should be entered in the SMTP Password field. Click OK to save any changes you may have made.

If your SMTP Host is set to something other than smtp.frontier.com, smtp.frontiernet.net, smtp.citlink.net, mail.ctaz.com, smtp.newnorth.net, or out.epix.net, no changes need to be made at this time.

Step 4:

Click the red circle in the upper lefthand corner of the window. If asked, select Save to keep your changes. That's it! SMTP authentication has been enabled!
