 +**TCP/IP summary:**
 +  * HTTP: http://​db0fhn.efi.fh-nuernberg.de:​8080
 +  * SMTP: smtp:​%%//​%%db0fhn.efi.fh-nuernberg.de:​8025
 +  * POP3: pop3:​%%//​%%db0fhn.efi.fh-nuernberg.de:​8110
  
 +You can reach the packet radio mailbox in AX.25 by connecting to DB0FHN-8. We use the popular OpenBCM mailbox system. If you plan to use DB0FHN as your homemailbox you should set this with "mybbs db0fhn"​ sometimes. This information will be published to all other mailboxes and your personal mails will arrive. The integrated helpsystem is accessable by "​help"​. The full documentation as well as the software can be obtained at http://​dnx274.org/​baybox.
 +
 +You can reach the packet radio mailbox on the Internet here: http://​db0fhn.efi.fh-nuernberg.de:​8080. If you like to have write access through the internet please go back to "​Setting the Mailboxpassword"​ on the mainpage.
 +
 +You can use POP3 and SMTP to receive and send packet radio mails. An example is shown by Outlook Express. Click Tools -> Accounts and add a new Mailaccount:​
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard1.png|}}
 +
 +Write down your name and your packet radio address. If you use DB0FHN as your homebbs your address is <​callsign>​@db0fhn.#​bay.deu.eu. Continue with "​Next"​ if your mailclient claims about no valid emailaddress.
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard2.png|}}
 +
 +Write down the hostname for SMTP and POP3.
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard3.png|}}
 +
 +Use your callsign and tty-password as account data.
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard4.png|}}
 +
 +Now change settings of the new account with "​properties"​.
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard5.png|}}
 +
 +Choose tab "​Advanced"​ and change port number for SMTP to 8025 and port number for POP3 to 8110.
 +
 +{{radio:​db0fhn:​bcmwizard6.png|}}
 +
 +Finished...
 +
 +DB0FHN uses SMTP-after-POP. So you can send mails after you checked for new mails. You don't need the full hierarchical address for sending Mails. If you like to send me a message just use "​dg8ngn@db0fhn"​ as receiver.
 +
 +Sometimes you don't know the homebbs of your desired recpient. You can send your mail to "<​callsign>​@db0fhn"​ and DB0FHN will try to resolve the path once a night. ​
 +
 +Please use "plain text" as mail sending format. You can change it in menu at Tools -> Options -> Send -> Mail Sending Format.
