Problems configuring SMTP on non standard port using Tech-Pro POP3 Pal email client

T

trevaaaaaaa

I am having problems configuring SMTP with this client. I know my
settings are fine as they work in outlook. I think the problem is that
I need to tell POP3 pal to use a non-standard port number for sending
mail (587), the help file says the following

"Yes. POP3 Pal normally uses the standard port numbers for POP3 servers

(110) and SMTP servers (25). To specify a non-standard port number,
simply follow the server name by a colon and the port number, like
this: localhost:1110."


As I say I am trying to use port 587, but all I get is an
"authorisation error", as I say I know the settings are fine as I have
used same ones in outlook with no problems.


Any help appreciated.

Have you tried changing the port number under Tools | Accounts | [PROFILE] |
Properties | Advanced.

Assuming you are trying to get Outlook Express to work. You didn't say.
