To begin, you will need to set up a new account or import account settings from another application. Go to
Ask your ISP for the specific server names or IP addresses to enter into the incoming and outgoing mail servers. If your ISP uses a non-standard server port (default ports are 143 for IMAP, 110 for POP, and 119 for NNTP), you can enter it after the server name in the form "servername:port", i.e. "pop.example.com:111".
The "Leave messages on server" setting is enabled by default for POP users. This setting tells Opera Mail to leave all received e-mail on the mail server, so it's accessible from other computers. Most POP users will want this setting disabled if they'll only be accessing their e-mail via Opera Mail.
Once you have created an e-mail or newsgroup account, the
Security
TLS and SSL (the precursor to TLS) enable encrypted communications between a mail client and server. Encrypted communications allow your password and other sensitive data to be sent across the Internet without others being able to spy on it. Opera Mail supports both TLS and SSL. The server must support e-mail encryption for you to use this feature.
If you want to use TLS encryption, enable the "Secure connection" setting. If you want to use SSL encryption, enable the "Secure connection" setting and add the necessary port (port 993 for secure IMAP and port 995 for secure POP) in the "Incoming server" input as described above. These settings can also be adjusted on the "Servers" tab in account settings once your account has been created.
