Problem:
Internet
Mail (included with Internet Explorer 3.02) will disconnect after checking
for new email, or after sending new email. This is due to a setting that
instructs the program to hang up after performing any email activity.
Solution:
To turn this function off,
please follow these steps:
-
Open your email as you normally would.
-
Across the top of the screen, you will see several menus starting with
"File", "Edit", "View", etc. Click on the menu that is labeled "Mail",
and then click on "Options".
-
A new screen will pop up. Across the top of this new screen, click on the
tab labeled "Connection".
-
At the bottom of this screen, you will see a checkbox labeled "Disconnect
when finished sending and receiving". Remove the check for the box.
This step is circled in red below.
-
Click the "Apply" button in the bottom right corner, and then click
"OK".
