POP3 and STMP
 
I have never been able to use Outlook express for email. It always tells me
the POP3 is incorrect. Well now I need to get it right. I have been working
with it all day and, well it is still wrong. Can someone help me get the
right information in here so it will work? I appreciate any help I can get.
I am not sure is the STMP info is correct or not.

Thank you

Amy

You need to get the account settings from your ISP.

Hi Amy,
I just went through this myself - this is what MSN stated after several
calls and many attempts to get it right!. Do Not use "POP3" use "HTTP" in
place of thoes words "POP3". They are converting all POP3 to HTTP.
I hope this helps.

Amy FIY also:
This is what is in my setup under server url, they use your hotmail acct. to
get your mail out of your msn e-mail acct.. Than all other info you must
fill in is what you already know.... user name, password and so on. If this
does not help please let me know.
Lyn
Server url is - http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
