Can't access Netscape mail with Netscape email client anymore.
 

When I upgraded 7.1 to 7.2 earlier this year I found I couldn't connect
the e-mail client to my free Netscape mail account. I did some light
Googling and determined that it was just a temporary problem, but here I
am months later and still unable to access my Netscape mail with the
Netscape e-mail client.

This is the primary advantage to using Netscape. I've been doing well
with Thunderbird+Firefox, but I'd like to get back to the convenience of
Netscape's "Swiss Army" application. Is there anything I can do or is
this feature simply history?

Thanks.

Is there a setup in its properties, for a default email program?

But if you do, remember the news server secnews.netscape.com needs to have a
secure connection, otherwise you won't see most of the groups!

No, but is this part of the problem? My problem is getting through the
"Free Webmail" wizard in the Netscape email client. I click on the
option to configure the account (my account exists and I can access it
via a web browser). I can get it to connect to their servers, then I
fill in the information it asks for and then after a considerable wait I
wind up at a window that says:

Mailbox creation failed

Webmail server error. We are not able to create a mailbox for your
Screen Name at this time. However, we successfully registered your
Screen Name. Please visit http://webmail.netscape.com to complete your
mailbox creation.

Not helpful. I point my browser to the url and sign in. I have my
email account and it works just fine. Why won't Netscape Mail connect
to this account?

Thanks.
