To sign up for an Opera Web Mail account please follow this step by step procedure:

1. Go to operamail.com.
2. Click on the "Sign up for free Opera Web Mail >>" link.
3. Read the Terms of Service, take special note of chapter 13, and accept.
4. Choose a valid username. If the username you choose is already in use you will be notified, and alternative usernames will be shown.
5. Enter all relevant information. All fields marked with ** need to be filled in, except ZIP code, which is for US citizens only.
6. Enter the obscured word. This can be a bit tricky. The obscured word can be hard to read. If you enter it incorrectly, the page will reset all sensitive information (password etc) and you need to fill this in again. If you find the word too hard to read, click on the "here" link underneath, and it will give you a new word.
7. Enter hint question and answer.
8. Click the "Sign me up" button.
9. If you would not like to upgrade to Opera Web Mail Premium, but have a basic, free account, click on the "No thanks" button on the page that is displayed.
10. Your account should now be ready to use.

Opera Web Mail offers POP support for Premium users. If you want to use your Opera Web Mail Premium account with an e-mail client, you will need to ensure that the server settings reflect the following:

• Username: username:operamail.com#operamail.com
• Incoming Mail Server: pop3.operamail.com
• Outgoing Mail Server: smtpx.operamail.com

If your ISP is blocking port 25, an alternative port for outgoing SMTP is 587.
