Default can't send or receieve emails using wireless connection

I've just set up my toshiba tecra with a netgear wireless router, and
whilst I can get onto the internet, I can't send or receive email. Are
there settings which I need to alter IN oUTLOOK 2003 to achieve this?
Any help appreciated.
cheers

Yes indeed, 'unable to find the email server - please verify' and
'the server name you entered can not be found on the network'

Sounds like you've connectivity issues when you're connected wirelessly. Can
you PING your mail server(s) when connected wirelessly?

Open a command line window and type

ping yourmailserver

where "yourmailserver" is the name of your mail server.
