ESSAGE SERVICE AND THE
I
NTERNET
Your terminal lets you send and receive documents and E-mails from subscribers throughout the world
over the Internet.
An E-mail is an electronic message sent over the Internet, to an E-mail address (which is a personal
Internet mailbox).
Access to the Internet is possible thanks to an Internet service provider (ISP). The provider puts at your
disposal a server, or computer system which allows you to connect to the Internet and your mailbox
through your telephone line.
Before worldwide transmission, you must:
• take out an Internet subscription from an Internet Service Provider (ISP),
• check that all initialisation parameters correspond to those provided by your ISP,
• perform the proper settings, if needed, for the Internet connection.
You may then connect yourself to the Internet via your ISP to send and receive fax-Internet or
E-mails. Both operations will be performed during an Internet connection.
I
NITIALISATION PARAMETERS
You must define or, at least check all parameters needed to identify yourself with the Internet. Your
ISP will provide you with these parameters as soon as you are registered with them.
The parameters are divided in four categories:
• connection, allows you to identify the dial up number, the connection identifier and the connec-
tion password,
• message service, allows you to define the message service identifier, the message service pass-
word and the E-Mail address,
• servers, allows you to identify the name of the IP address of Internet SMTP providers (send) and
POP3 (MBX reception) and the address of DNS 1 and DNS 2 servers. The server address is made
up of 4 groups of 3 digits maximum, separated by dots,
• SMTP Authentification, used to activate the authentification protocol when the SMTP server
used requests this to end e-mails.
When there is an OTHER ISP, the server parameters are automatically suggested after the parameters
of connection and of message service.
