Setting POP Frequency on Eudora

Most e-mail software can be set up to retrieve your messages automatically on a regular interval. Attempting to retrieve new messages on extremely frequent intervals may adversely impact your E-mail performance. Since our systems only query for new messages once every 5 minutes, we recommend you adjust your retrieval settings to check for messages with the same frequency - every 5 minutes.

To improve your E-mail performance, follow the directions below to change your retrieval setting.

1. Open Eudora
2. Click on the TOOLS menu
3. Select the OPTIONS sub-munu
4. Click the CHECKING MAIL icon
5. Type 5 in the box that reads "Check for mail every ___ minute(s)"
6. Click OK
