Hey guys. I've been having some trouble sending/receiving emails with Outlook Express (or any other email client), and would appreciate some ideas/advice on what I could do to fix things. Basically, what's happening is that aside from a hotmail account I have, Outlook Express refuses to send/receive any emails. For example, with Yahoo, even though I'm a member of Yahoo delivers and have put in the correct POP3/SMTP info, it continually asks for my password (which I've already entered when adding Yahoo as a mail account to OE)...and then eventually gives me the following error message:
Therewas a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was rejected. Account: 'pop.mail.yahoo.com', Server: 'pop.mail.yahoo.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Error logging in. Please visit http://mail.yahoo.com', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
It doesn't only do this with Yahoo, either...it does it with any other email provider I've tried that works with POP3/SMTP access. Except for hotmail, of course. I've even downloaded Eudora to see if it will work with that, and it does the same thing. This leads me to believe that there's something going on with my computer in regards to this emailing stuff that needs changing.
Anyone have any ideas? Any advice/info/help on this subject would be greatly appreciated. I have Outlook Express 6, the latest version of IE, and obviously Windows XP...as well as a wireless highspeed connection (shaw.ca)...hope that helps.
Thanks a lot, guys! Looking forward to hearing from you...
Regards,
Jake B.
