Dial up Connection options

To receive mails by dial-up, go to dialup tab in the POP2Exchange dialog. Tick the option 'Receive mails by dial-up'.

Dial-up options

In this dialog, you can specify where and when GFI MailEssentials should dial up to pick up email. You must specify a dial up networking profile and specify a login name and password, as well as a schedule when the mail should be sent/ picked up. The dial up networking profiles are set up from RAS. The following options are available:

Use this Dial-Up Networking profile: Choose the Dial up Networking profile you wish to use from the drop down list.

If not connected dial: If you tick this option GFI MailEssentials will only dial up if there is no connection.

User name: Enter the user name used to logon to your ISP.

Password: Enter the password used to logon to your ISP.

Process only when already connected: If you tick this option, GFI MailEssentials will only process mail if a connection already exists.

Dial on demand router: If you have an internet connection that gets automatically established, such as a dial on demand router, select this option. This will cause GFI MailEssentials to pick up mail at the specified interval, but without triggering a dial up connection.

Process every .. minutes: Enter the interval at which GFI MailEssentials must either dial up or check if a connection already exists (depends on whether you set GFI MailEssentials to dial up or to only process mail when already connected).

Scheduler
