I'm using gmail. I had an old laptop and it worked just fine. I bought a
new
laptop and typed in the setting (as they appeared on the old laptop).
Wouldn't work. Went online to the gmail site and copied the settings from
there. Same problem. Used the online automatic setting program. Again it
wouldn't work.

I can receive emails but not send them. If I reply to an email it
sometimes
work. If I try to send an email it says "you don't have any accounts
configured for sending emails"!!.


At least one of the accounts defined within Outlook Express must have an
SMTP server defined. Gmail uses *different* names for the POP3 and SMTP
mail hosts.

Did you follow the instructions at
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...topic=0&type=f
on setting up Gmail for access by a local e-mail client?
