Using MS Outlook Express via Horde email [moved]

It appears that you are trying to set up a POP email address in Outlook and are confused by the horde settings.

You are setting up a POP3 account.
Incoming mail server is mail.setterbrae.co.uk
Username/Account Name is emailaddress@setterbrae.co.uk
Password is your password
The outgoing mail server is a littel tougher, either it will be something like smtp.yourisp.com (replace with the smtp of your isp) or you may also use mail.setterbrae.co.uk but you would also need to enable authentication. This also depends on whether your isp allows you to send mail using another mail server, mine unfortunately does not as it has blocked port 25.

Thanks,
Andy

 

i can receive email in outlook for my website but i can't send.
i see that you (onaweb) have the same problem. so, i'm assuming that's
normal?
i have to send email thru cpanel/horde?
bummer.

i'm going to keep searching the boards for more info..

thank you,
jen

 

nothing has worked

well, i searched the forum and took the advise that was given. but nothing has
worked.

any other suggestions? maybe something new has come about?

thank you, jenn

 

set your smtp server to your isp setting and try that as in mail.yourispname.com or smtp.yourispname.com in outlook

 

i already have my smtp server set up like that.

i called sbc and get this - you have to fill out a form for 3rd party emails! i had no
idea - anyway, the guy filled out a form for me and opened port: 25.

STILL CAN'T SEND email. mamma mia.

he told me to wait 2 hours and turn off everything, wait 10 seconds, and turn back on.

if this doesn't work.........

if this doesn't work what else do i do?? bah.


edit: well it is now 5 hours later and i still can't send email. i'm going to contact
my webhost and see if they can help me out.

again if anyone here can help me .....

 

I GOT IT!!!! WOOOHOOOOO!!! :D

i went to my webhost and their "troubleshooting" area - they suggest i change to
port 26. i almost want to say "duh" :p

and it worked!!!!!! of course, my norton pops up everytime i send an email but who
gives a flying crap. i can finally send mail!!!!!
