Afetr being a lifelong outlook express user I decided to try Outlook. I
have set up my internet POP3 account and sent a test message from outlook
express, which arrived just find. However when I hit the reply button to
send it back again it wont send. Am I missing something basic? I have
checked the account settings and they appear to be fine. Sorry I am not the
greatest with computers so please forgive me if there is an obvious
soloution I am missing!

TIA

Angela

What version of Outlook are you using ?
When you set up your Outlook email account, did you do it manually or use
the FILE, Import/Export method (Import Email account) as this normally works
fine with OE and Outlook. Sometimes you do have to enter (or reenter) the
password.
What happens when you hit send ? Any error message ?

I did it manually but I will try the import/export option

No error message at all, in fact it says task completed successfully yet the
message is just sitting in the outbox!!

It worked...........all the settings look the same but for some reason it
worked fine. THANKS!!

Angela,
What you mean for once I got a answer right ? :-)

I had the same problem, I set up an account the old fashioned way and then
also imported the settings and did a Print Screen of each page and they were
exact. My guess is that it must be a password that is getting changed
somehow, but I had tried entering the correct password over and over and
never any luck, until I did the import.
Glad its working for you now !
Tedd
