I have a recurring problem in Outlook Express. I can send email through my blueyonder address and not receive (getting this message ~ "The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop3.blueyonder.co.uk', Server: 'pop3.blueyonder.co.uk', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E") and I can receive mail to OE from hotmail but not send it (getting this message ~ "The server does not support the required HTTP methods. Account: 'Hotmail', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Method Not Allowed', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC35" My ISP have tried to get it sorted but can't and have suggested it maybe something left over from Zone Alarm. I used jv16 Power tools and removed all traces from the registry *gulp* and it was still the same so I restored the pc to about a week ago when there shouldn't have been a problem but there is. Whatever it is has also caused a problem with my Mailround Mailman and I suspect that may be where the problem lies now but I have had no reply from them. I'm running Windows XP (SP1) & OE 6 Help? Anyone? Ange (Clueless of Donny) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIGHT BACK AGAINST SPAM!
