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 |

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. Lyn "Home" wrote in message ... I have never been able to use Outlook express for email. It always tells me the POP3 is incorrect.
