84429 2002-09-29 09:29:00 In contemplation of purchasing a new computer, I have saved my email account settings onto floppy disc. My question is: when I purchase, is it simply a matter of importing those settings back into the new computer so that I remain connected, or is maintaining my connection with Xtra not that simple? Any advice will be gratefully received. waynemarg (2072)

Just phone 0800 22 55 98...... there is a automated help line that makes configuring an internet connection and setting up a email account as simple as ABC

84431 2002-09-29 09:35:00 Its even simpler.

All you need to know is the Xtra settings for POP3 (pop3.xtra.co.nz) and SMTP (smtp.xtra.co.nz), your e-mail address (yourchosenID@xtra.co.nz) and the password you setup to access your mail.

If you are using the same e-mail program however, it will likely import the data you have saved with the probable exception of your password.
