Outlook 2003 & POP3/SMPT Mail Servers

[Jose]

Hi...I can't get my Outlook 2003 to connect to my Network
Solutions e-mail account. I was receiving e-mail just
fine before on Outlook Express, but ever since I bought a
new laptop running XP and upgraded to Office for Small
Businesses, I can't get it to check for e-mail.

All of my settings are the same. I wasn't able to send
mail before because my ISP is AOL, but I at least would
receive my e-mail.

When I test my e-mail settings, Outlook 2003 goes through
everything fine except for the send test e-mail step.

Could this be a Firewall issue? HELP!!!

What error do you get when you use the Test Account Settings?
