Btopenworld e-mail

[Matthew Lambert]

Hi,

I cannot seem to get my btopenworld e-mail to work with outlook express. I
am using the incoming and outgoing servers as mail.btopenworld.com and I am
fairly sure I have the right port numbers 25 and 110, but for some reason it
is not working.

Unfortunately the page on their website which helps setup e-mail on POP3
servers is not working either

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Thanks

Matt

Hi - what errors are you getting?

Also note -
This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program, despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
Outlook Express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups).

A good website for information on OE is:

Don't forget to mention the exact error codes and ask in an Outlook Express
forum. This is an Microsoft Office Outlook forum.

Outlook Express is family of Internet Explorer and Outlook of the Office
family.

Here is the link for the right forum

Good Luck!

Thanks I will do so. I have tried to telnet to the mail.btopenworld.com
server and this is fine but within OE It keeps trying to connect and then
stalls on authorising and asks again for the user Id and password.
