Wimmy - Email setup

[Stu R]

Wimmy,

Recieved all your e-mails cheers.

I have set up outlook express with the details that you gave me for boo mail. I have set ip up as a new indentity.

I can recieve emails but when I send an email out. I get an error message:

"
An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'boo', Server: 'mail.webtapestry.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '554 Please check your SMTP server is set to smtp.wanadoo.co.uk. Further help is available at http://www.wanadoo.co.uk/help/email/freeserveemailsettings/outlooksettings.htm', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 554, Error Number: 0x800CCC6F"

I don't know whether this is something I have done wrong, boo mail is down or something to do with wanadoo who is my Broadband.

Don't know what to do next.

The outgoing server must be the same as for your primary mail. I mean of the internet provider.

Is there any way round this to keep it a pop3. Would like it so I could send mail out.

All is the same just tipe your outgoing mail adrdess that you have on the primary mail for the BOO mail - the outgoing address must be the same as for the mail that you got with your internet provider

Bill Gates was obviously having a bad day when he dreamt up Outlook.

And then another back day when he thought of Outlook Express.

What a complete and utter ....... Bill is.

Fill in the blank as you desire!
