Outlook Express! How I suddenly hate you!

I can receive email but not send! And yet my webmail is working. So what the hell?

Hehe I was like huh, he musta gotten busy.

Check your POP3 address and logon preferences, outlook likes to lose or switch them every now and then.

as far as I can tell...everything is working properly.
I can receive no problem. I just can send a god damn thing.

I had this problem at work once, just reverse where we could send but not receive. Hmm. All I can say is check all the in and out settings and double check your logons and passwords...if not, install a patch for it and redo everything.

Can you logon to your webmail and send shit there, or is it pop3 connection only?

[kory_mon]

nope. I can log onto my webmail and send from there (it's just a pain in the ass).
So...I is confused, like a slack-jawed yonkel.
I'll run a scan over night and keep working on it until I hit frustration.

Here's a page for ya:

The important thing is to have "shawmail" for your incomming and outgoing servers.

All else fails, call Shaw's customer support and get them to walk you through it over the phone (or tell you it is a known problem)...
