Open Apple Mail from the Dock, using the stamp icon. Alternatively, use Spotlight to search for “mail”.
In the menu bar at the top of the screen, select Mail > Add account.
A panel will open, asking you to choose a Mail account provider. Click the radio button next to Other Mail Account… then select Continue.
In the next panel, Add a Mail account, enter your Name, Email Address and POP3 account password. Then, click Sign In. Apple Mail will attempt to automatically retrieve your email server details.
If your server details are not automatically retrieved, you should enter them manually in the next panel. Locate your POP3 account details and enter them as follows:
- Email Address: Your full email address.
- User Name: Your email account user name.
- Password: Your email account password.
- Account Type: Use the dropdown menu to select POP.
- Incoming Mail Server: mail.papamail.net.
- Outgoing Mail Server: mail.papamail.net.
Once the details have been entered, click Sign In.
You should now be able to use your POP3 email account.
