Outlook Express Help

All the years i had it and it never worked. It always said The Host 'SMTP'
could not be found. Please verify that you entered the server name correctly.
Account pop3 server stmp protocol smtp, port 25 secure ssl no. socket error:
11001 error # 0x800cccod I never knew what it ment and could not get any
help so i left it go. I need to send pages sometimes through it and i can't.
Thanks, Ken

Best to ask the experts in an OE newsgroup. Remember to state the version
you use.

Who is your ISP/Mail Server? How were you sending e-mail if this never
worked? SMTP is /not/ a valid host.

Please post the error message in its entirety. You can left click on it to
highlight and then right click to copy and then paste it into this thread.

It's never worked because you've never correctly configured you mail
account(s) in OE.

Contact your ISP for instructions.

Why ask here? Do you see OE in this group's title? No.

Ask elsewhere

As our resident ****wi knows only too well (but just won't admit it),
Outlook Express is part of Windows XP.

You continue making an ass of yourself. Why? Do you think you are impressing
