WAM E-mail will be sufficient.
In the Name: field, type your name, as you would like
people
to see it when they receive mail from you.

. In this example, if your e-mail address is
jdoe@wam.umd.edu,
your user name will be jdoe.

-
If you would like Entourage to
remember your password so you do not have to enter it each time
you
check your mail, enter it in the Password box, and check
Save password in my MAC OS Keychain box.
In the SMTP server field, type in the appropriate outgoing mail
server
for your account:
PLEASE NOTE: If you use an Internet service provider (ISP) other than the

server instead of one of the servers listed below.
- WAM account, use smtp.wam.umd.edu
- Glue account, use smtp.glue.umd.edu
- Deans account, use smtp.deans.umd.edu
