Creating profiles in Netscape 7:

Suppose you have several people in the household using the same computer.  If every e-mail address were configured under the same profile, all the e-mail would be downloaded into the same place.  You would then have to sort through the e-mails finding which belonged to you and which belonged to any other user.  Profiles eliminate this hassle.  Creating a profile is like having your own version of Netscape; they help keep your mail from any other users of the computer.

Important:  Netscape must be closed to create a profile.

Go the the Applications folder on the Macintosh Hard Drive, open the Mozilla folder and double click the Netscape Profile Manager.

The Netscape Profile Manager appears.

Click Create Profile.

 

The Create Profile wizard launches.

Click the Next button to continue.

 

Enter New Profile name  =  Give the profile a name.  In this example, I gave the profile the name 'John Boy'.

Click Finish to complete the profile.

 

You now have a new profile.  When Netscape starts, you'll see this screen.

Select your profile and click Start Netscape 7.0.

Note:  You still need to create an e-mail account for this profile.  To learn how to create an e-mail account, click here.
