Unable to send test message when setting up email account
I am setting up an email account with Outlook 2003 and am unable to send a
test message. I am using a verizon email account and am setting it up according to the instructions on this site. It keeps telling me to check my email address. My email address is valid but it is not sending out the test message. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Are you connected to Verizon's network when attempting to send or are you
connected to another provider's network? "Brad" wrote in message ... I am setting up an email account with Outlook 2003 and am unable to send a test message.

Unable to send test message when setting up email account
I'm not sure I understand your question, but I'll do my best.
I am only logged in to Verizon's network as far as I know. Do I have to be logged on to Verizon's email page when I try to send/receive mail in outlook? If so, that's not worth it considering I can just check my email from their website.

No, you don't have to be logged into their web site.

Unable to send test message when setting up email account
They are my provider for DSL, not broadband. Could that be the problem?

OK, in my mind DSL is 'broadband' hence the disconnect there...
Can you ping your SMTP server while you're connected? "Brad" wrote in message ... No one is my broadband provider. I connect using DSL. Verizon is my DSL internet provider.
