re: configuring outlook email

[headlands]

I set up my outlook email account according to the instructions.

Result:

- ALL emails from my web email acct were retrieved into outlook email acct, but
- cannot send email from the Outlook email account, only receive emails from my web account

- I have tried to input my ISP into the SMTP rather than my website name as suggested but to no avail.
- I have tried to manually and automatically (unencrypted with MS Ofc Pro 2007) configure the Outlook email account to no avail

Any suggestions would be most welcome

Re: configuring outlook email

Who is your ISP?? if it's AOHell, then you can't send, only receive.
