Sending Ten-Nash Email from Home

In order to send email through Ten-Nash from your home computer you must set the outgoing mail server on your mail preferences to your ISP (Internet Service Provider) server.  Follow the directions for setting up your preferences but do not use ten-nash.ten.k12.tn.us for the outgoing server name.
For example:  If your ISP is ICX then you must change the outgoing mail server in the preferences to:  mailhub.icx.net (Be sure to click the OK button each time you close a screen.)
To find out your ISP server name, contact your provider.
