Help: I want to go back to using my old server but I am not sure how? I
didn't even really meant to set this up. Can someone tell me how I can
reverse it so I get my mail back in my university account? Thanks
You can use more than one email server under Windows Mail if you
want to, but Windows Mail puts the mail for all of them into the same
set of Local Folders.
Ask your university how to set up to use their email servers. If they
haven't written instructions for Windows Mail yet, their instructions
for Outlook Express should also work under Windows Mail as long
as they don't call for the HTTP protocol. Such instructions are often
somewhere of their web site. If your connection to their email server
uses some internet provider's equipment along the way, and it uses
port 25, such connections are often blocked to cause problems for
spammers. Therefore, if they give you the option to use a port other
than port 25, take it. Just trying all the ports is a very slow way to
find which of them work, though, since there are about 65,000 ports
available.
