Is it possible to both change to a different ISP, and ALSO to retain
the Yahoo! service, which was set up through Earthlink?
I am guessing I should follow the instructions from a prior
post...(below)...can anyone confirm if this is the right sequence for
the DET-1? The below instructions were for an "original black model"
If I dump the system data, how do I set up the Yahoo! service?
Thanks, sorry for the dumb questions, I'm not much of a techie.

Set up a second user for the second service. AFAIK, the Yahoo! service is
long gone.

I tried...but the "new user" function is blocked, it says to call
Customer Service to set up a new user.

You must have a newer unit then. I have a Yahoo one and I can set up any ISP
and 5 users.

Here are some notes on some models:-
FN+Shift+T or FN+Shift+Size are for MailStation 100
===================================================
If you press Function + d (on the MS 150, V4.04D) and press the
hard reset button (with a paper clip) you'll get a slightly different
menu dialog (the "Reset System Data" menu) after the memory scan? You
have to keep holding Function + d after the reboot to see it.
The menu shows an additional item: "Restore Default Account".
===================================================
I figured out how to get into the setup menu on my Mailstation 350.
Remove the batteries and use only the ac adapter to power the unit.
Perform a reset to factory default settings by pressing and holding
down the keys <Function + D> and power up. Select Yes when asked to
restore to factory settings.
During the message "Please wait while system resets" unplug the ac
adapter. This corrupts the settings in memory so that the unit will
now only bring up the setup menu.
The setup menu asks for User Name, Dial Up Number, Reply to address,
and E-mail address. There is also a Network settings button that
appears in the menu. Unfortunatly it will not let you put in an e-
mail address or allow you to go to the Network menu. I'm guessing
there is some combination of keystrokes or some hidden way to allow
access to those settings but I haven't been able to figure it out.
===================================================
Good work Jeff. I could perform the reset with batteries as well.
All I did was to to use a pin inserted on the little hole on the
back to press the reset button during the message "Please wait
while system resets". Then, press Fnct-D keys during the next
power on.
===================================================
A Mivo 250 uses Fcn-Shift-SIZE!!! Not T!!!
===================================================
Great news! I was able to configure a Mailstation (black) original model to
work with Access-4-Free, a free (10hrs month) ISP!
