I have scrolled through all the messages on this board and unable to remedy
this problem.
I installed sp2 twice already and , when I attempt to open Outlook Express
6.00.2800.1123 I am prompted for a password that doesn't not exsist. When I
set up my account ,I didn't include a password for access because I was the
only user.
NOW, after restoring my computer to a previous date, I can get email, but
now I can not send email. error :
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Subject 'Fw: Hey Todd...', Account: 'pop.earthlink.net', Server:
'smtp.earthlink.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '421
pop-a065d23.pas.sa.earthlink.net SMTP incoming data timeout - closing
connection.', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 421, Socket Error:
10053, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

I am at my wits end............

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97-2003 from the Office
family for Windows PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting in one
of
these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...blic.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress

http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...ess.mac&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup
references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:
