Add Additional Mac Mail Account

This instruction set will walk you through adding a zianet.com email account in Mac Mail. The images here may be slightly different than those you have in your version of Mac Mail but the settings are the same for all versions.

If this is the first time using Mac Mail on this computer click here.
If you already have your zianet.com account in Mac Mail and just want to check the settings, click here.

If you are already using Mac Mail, and just want to add another e-mail account, continue on this page.
