Hi Nicks, welcome to the cellar.

Honest answer--ditch outlook express and get on board with Eudora or some other client. I hate outlook express. Full-on Outlook 2003 is sweet, but they've crippled the other version. I've had nothing but bad experiences with it. YMMV

It would appear that your SMTP and POP3 server settings are incorrect.

Ditto that. I don't trust an e-mail client that automatically loads messages that I haven't chosen to view into a viewer pane. Especially when that client supports ActiveX, VBScript, and who knows what else.

NovemberRain, just go to "tools", "options" and unclick the third box down in "general". It won't do dat no mo.

I'm with Elspode......SMTP and POP3.

Too late. I've moved on to Eudora and then Thunderbird since then, and I ain't switching again.
