I cannot get MSO to move my email messages from my out bos to my sent box and
they actually send my messages. thanks paul
 
Maybe am just stupid, but what is MSO? Also, you have to advise us what
version of Outlook are you using, is there an error message, etc,etc...
 
Thank you for the response. MSO is Micro Soft Outlook. I have Outlook 2003.
And I see a type in my question. I can't get outlook to move the messages to
the sent and it will not actually send the messages. The error messages seem
to shift a bit but primarily it says that the isp is not responding.
thank you, plog@spok

Are you properly authenticating to your outgoing server?
 
Brian,

Thank you for your response. I have only a very dim understanting of what
it means to properly authenticate the outgoing server. Could you enlighten
me. My Outlook Express works just fine with seemingly the same settings.

In your service,

Paul Logan

In days past, ISPs required clients to specify login credentials
(username/password) when connecting to POP servers (incoming mail) but
allowed anyone to connect to their SMTP servers (outgoing mail). This lead
to abuse by SPAMmers who would use ISPs' servers to spew their trash.
Adelphia is an example if an ISP that allowed this to go on and suffered the
consequences when they lost so much of their business.

Now, ISPs are requiring clients to provide login credentials when sending
SMTP (outgoing) mail as well. Most mail clients allow for this now,
including Outlook and Outlook Express. To locate the place where you select
this option, click Tools>E-mail Accounts>Next. Select your account anc
click Change, then More Settings. Click the Outgoing Server tab. The check
box at the top (My outgoing server (SMTP) required authentication) and the
two radio buttons beneath that control authentication. Usually the "Use
same settings as my incoming server" radio button is appropriate.
