or :

2. In the Account Name field enter username@hostname.demon.co.uk

Note: At least one of the accounts must be setup to receive all mail for the hostname (normally called the postmaster). This account must also be set to mirror all mail, otherwise the users may not be able to collect their mail as the "postmaster" account may have already collected the mail and deleted it form the Demon servers.
