Outlook 2003 problem...

[dig_it]

I got Outlook 2003, Win Xp with IMAP a/c from Fastmail.

Though I can receive the mails in Outlook I cant send using SMTP. Is there a problem. The software just cant connect to the server. The server settings are correct.

Does anyone else has any similar problem. Pls help.

I use KAV Personal Pro, Outpost Firewall also.

yes man... fastmail don't allow u to use SMTP... means you can only get mails from there, but can't send.

use hotmail/msn or gmail.... pop/smtp are free on all of them.

sorry but i forgot to mention.. i have an enhanced account which allows everything.... sieve, smtp, pop, imap, spamcheck..


still outlook is a problem. and the settings are correct.

Enable the settings that says "My server requires authentication". It can be found in Tools > Accounts > Properties.

BTW, did this problem start recently only? Were you able to send messages earlier? Did you change any settings or install any new software?
