Making Connections

Connecting to Nebula when you are not plugged into a UW ethernet jack can take a little more preparation, but it can also make life easier when you've just got to have that certain something from the office.

How can I get connected?

Any connection to the Internet will give you some functionality.

In some cases, you can get full functionality.

Setting your SMTP server

While in PC Pine, use M(enu) - S(etup) - C(onfiguration) to open your configuration menu, and arrow to the "smtp-server" line. If this says anything but "No Value Set", hit the D key and then Enter to overwrite the value with the default. Then hit E(xit) and Y(es) to save and exit. You'll find more information about setting the smtp value for other email programs at the UW EMail Management page.
