The option you want to enable is on the 2nd tab of the account config "my outgoing server requires authenticaion" (something like that, I have the Spanish version of Office 2000. The option is NOT secure password authentication. You need not click the options button next to this option, the default action is to use the same username and password as the POP3 account.

I believe OL XP supports APOP, but OL 2000 does not. If that doesn't help, try specifying the full email address for the user name: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't see why that one would be different between 2000 and XP, so I think it's probably the SPA setting. -Seth -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of William Denniss Sent: Tuesday, March 04, 2003 3:19 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [xmail] POP3 Authentication error for Outlook 2000 Hi, I have just recentally installed XMail on our office linux box, and it is= =20 doing it's job nicly (as an SMPT server, inhouse emails, and connecting t= o=20 our offsite internet server using POP syncronisation).
