Outlook 2003 won't connect to POP/SMTP

[David Heddle]

I just upgraded at home to Office 2003. Outlook will not
connect to either POP or SMTP for any of several email
accounts that used to work under Outlook 2K. All the
settings seem to have been preserved correctly during the
upgrade, and another home machine is getting mail from one
the same servers (different account).

If I ping the servers, I get a good response.

Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.
