Using Your ISP
If you can't use mail.yourdomain.com for your SMTP - try this:
1. In Outlook Express, within the "Server tab", put in Outgoing Mail: smtp.email.msn.com (not mail.yourdomain.com - and if you're using another ISP besides MSN try replacing MSN with your ISP's name :). You can also try something like: mail.email.YOURISP.com or pop.YOURISP.com - Most likely your ISP's web site would have that information or you may need to call them.
2. In the Outgoing Mail Server section, check the box that says: My server requires authenticaion. Although your ISP may not require authentication as our servers do.
3. Press the "Settings..." tab to the right of the aforementioned check box and put your ISP account name and ISP password in the dialog boxes -- check the save password if you want to save your password. Check the Log on using Secure Password Authentication box too. Very important step! |
