First,
The posted answer for the fastcheck program (changing all references from Fastmail.fm to fastmail.com does appear to work.
But, as fine a program as that is, it is getting long in the tooth and support appears to be waning.
In the process of trying to resolve this issue (I use the feature a LOT!) I came across the program "PopPeeper" (
www.poppeeper.com) that you might want to check out. It has the following additional benefits:
1) you can monitor other e-mail services too, within the same program.
2) you can run it from a memory stick. (no Install)
3) you can preview the messages from it and delete or respond.
4) you can color code the e-mail.
I am sure there are more, but those are the ones I am using now that I have started with it.
You need to download the version of the program for your computer and if you wish it to be in the installed or no install format.
You then need to download the SSL add on (it's a zip file of two dlls that you move into the same directory as the pop peeper program.)
Then set it up for your e-mail programs!
Account name: Fastmail (or what ever you want!)
Email address: the address you want in the return address spot.
Login Name : this is the e-mail address you use to log onto fastmail with.
password : Duh!
Server type: IMAP and SSL
Incoming Server: mail.messagingengine.com and port 993
click the Enabled box.
That's it!
Worked first time for me!
