[JAWS-Users] server protocols needed
If anybody knows the server protocols for the ISP optonline.net please let me know. I am in the middle of setting up a friend's email account and he can receive mail just fine but he can't seem to send out. I used: pop.optonline.net and smtp.optonline.net since I had no idea what to use for sure and figured those were the most common settings. When I left he had already downloaded over 1200 messages since he had been off line for a good while so incoming seemed fine. I hoped out going would turn out the same but unfortunately it didn't. Also any other setting for example on the advanced tab of outlook express would be helpful. David Ferrin www.jaws-users.com Life is what happens after you have already made other plans.

Try setting pop port from 25 to 587. Most are going to that port to stop spam bouncing.

Re: [JAWS-Users] server protocols needed
I got the guy to call his ISP directly. All I had to do was change out going to mail. I changed the in coming as well to mail although it was working on pop but that's what their tech person said to do so who am I to argue with a provider. David Ferrin ow...@jaws-users.com I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I'll probably screw that one up too. - Original Message - From: tim z200...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Friday, September 10, 2010 7:02 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] server protocols needed Try setting pop port from 25 to 587.
