webmail system, the new system will pick it up automatically. However, if you make a folder in
the new system, you will need to go to the Folders area in the old system and subscribe to it. If

Overview: MCN has implemented secure TLS and SSL e-mail transmission for both our
incoming and outgoing servers. These secure transmission protocols allow for encryption of
your password and your e-mail messages to and from the MCN mail servers and are widely
used in the ISP industry. These secure transmission protocols can be used from any Internet
connection. These are good to use if you are away from home, using a wi-fi hotspot, or just want
some additional security during transmission of your e-mail messages. We encourage
.everyone to take advantage of this.
Using SSL/TLS Encryption: We have added instructions for turning on SSL e-mail for all of the
major e-mail clients such as Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Thunderbird, Entourage
and OS X Mail to our
Special E-mail Features Instructions
Spam Control, Powered by Magic Mail: MCN has partnered with Magic Mail to provide spam
and virus control services for our customers. We have a
Magic Mail info page
with product information, and an FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
MCN has now increased our standard mailbox size from 25 megabytes to 250 megabytes.
Additional e-mail storage can be purchased for e-mail storage.
IMAP: MCN Does support IMAP. IMAP and webmail users should note that any files left in the
trash folder more than two weeks will be deleted.
Autoresponders/Vacation Away Messages can be set up on your own, free of charge. Go to
our
Autoresponder Set-Up Instructions page to
learn how to do this.
Sending E-mail When Outside of the United States: In order to cut down on spam attacks from
overseas addresses, we're are now imposing a limit on the number of e-mail messages that
can be sent from networks outside of the U.S.. If you are traveling outside the U.S., please
limit your e-mail messages to a total of 100 recipients within a one hour period. This would be
