Dear all,

I have just configurated Outlook Express for Horde mail. I can send Emails without a problem, but I do not receive them.

Can you please help me?

smtp problem Mar 29, 2006

you should go to tools/ mail/properties/servers

You have a server for incoming mail (POP3) and outgoing mail SMTP. Check your settings there.
You should have:

POP3.your provider
SMTP.your provider

There should be no @

Hope this makes sense

It does not work Mar 29, 2006

Used to have same problem Mar 29, 2006

Until I found out that my former provider didn't allow me to receive e-mails anymore because in the meantime I changed the dial-up connection (another telephone number). Apparently few providers doesn't allow you to use their e-mail systems properly unless you use a specific phone number. It could be your case.

yes Mar 29, 2006

This could well be the case. What error message do you get?

That is the most strange thing. I do not get any error messages.

Thanks

Try this... Mar 29, 2006

Dear Maria Teresa,

I also used to have problems with Outlook Express until I was fed up with it. Since then I use Microsoft Outlook and have not had any problems.

I used to work with Microsoft Outlook and I had no problems with it. It is the first time I use Outlook Express.

Maybe you are right and I should return to Microsoft Outlook because I have tried everything and it does not work.

Thank you very much to everyone.
