Here is some information you will need to have
handy to setup your email client.
Mail Server names:
Both incoming (POP3 or IMAP) and outgoing (SMTP) mail servers are mail.netplex.net.
Username and Password:
Usually NETPLEX
customer's usernames will be the first part of your email
address. So if your email address is "yourusername@netplex.net",
just use your username NOT your whole email address.
