Huh? I use OE6 too and it always has a Server tab. Are you sure you looked where I said to look? That would solve the problem to an extent because (if you saw any differences) you'd know what to change back after running it. But as to how to **change** the config of nCleaner, then yes, you'd have to ask that of someone that used it, or ask the vendor if that area is not user-changeable. -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B." I'm using Outlook Express 6 which does not have a "Server" tab. However I'll record the information in the Accounts window in whatever tabs exist there and see what changes take place (if any) after using nCleaner. Of course, that doesn't solve anything even if I see some change. My question is what changes I might have to make in the nCleaner configuration so that any changes in the Accounts window (if any) will not take place when using nCleaner. The idea just occurred to me that I might contact whatever email address is on the nCleaner page, describe this problem to them, and see what they say. Meanwhile, thanks mucho, Clint, and I hope your problems, which seem infinitely more complicated, are resolved --- Harold > From: "Clint Hamilton-PCWorks Admin" > > Go to your OE's Tools > Accounts, then chose the email > address and check > the SMTP settings under the "Server" tab.
