So, it appears you're connecting to Juno's dial-up network. ** yep In the properties box that opens up (Outlook: toolsemail accounts change..), there's an entry for his name and email address. Below that, there's entries for his ID and pwd. His ID is: (although I've tried it w/out the " part - when he logs onto the Juno site for email, his ID is: . Whoa! It's too late now, but NEVER post a real address in a public newsgroup. You've just guaranteed the delivery of LOTS of SPAM and viruses to that address. This username/password should be put in the "Logon Information" on the mail account properties page. **duh. yeh. too tired and not thinking quite right. Sorry Dad g Yes, the correct info is in the correct spot. Next to that is a button for more settings. Here my memory gets a bit hazy - but as I posted in my first email, it's something like this: I get a 4 tabbed window. Under "outgoing server", I have a "My outoging server (SMTP) requires authentification" box, and then underneath I have 3 bullet options: 1. use same settings as my incoming server 2. log on using.... (boxes for entering info) 3. log on using incoming mail server before sending email The "Use same settings..." option is typically the correct one. ** yep. tried that and then a couple different combos of ID (w/ the ' after the user name & w/out - just the user name) in the "logon information" field. Neither worked. I researched this a bit more and it's possible that the provider has their Port 25 closed which is not allowing Outlook to connect. Juno basically said that as they've given me the settings, that's all they are going to do as they don't support Microsoft. So, what ports did Juno say you should use? Whatever they are, they should be specified on the Advanced tab of the account properties dialogue. Did they say whether or not you needed an SSL connection for either server? Do you have the settings chosen to match what they said? **They didn't say, and were basically completely in the dark w/ anything past the main settings properties page. Literally, all they would say/repeat is that I had the correct POP/SMTP settings and if it didn't work, tough. Neither of the 2 people I spoke to had any knowledge of the advanced settings area. The port 'info' was something I got posting to an ISP forum. I'll see if I can get someone to do the testing you recommend below and we'll go from there. Try enabling diagnostic logging (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300479/en-us) and if you can't understand what you see after performing a test or a send/receive, post the log contents here. -- Brian Tillman -- Brian Tillman |
