Set Up E-mail Servers Incoming E-mail Service POP3
Jun 1, 2009
I am trying to set up Windows Email but it is asking my for the following and I have no idea where to find the information:- Set up e-mail servers incoming e-mail service POP3, IMAP or HTTP - which one do I have Incoming Mail (POP3 or IMAP) Server - which one is it Outgoing e-mail Server (SMTP)20
I have no clue what POP3 Servers are for incoming mail. (in reference to starting outlook on a new laptop, it ask which pop3 server im using, What is this question refering to? Also for my outgoing SMTP, What does that mean? What are mine? Im trying to use YAHOO. OR Gmail, Whichevers better
It seems like i entered my POP3 and SMTP correctly but at the time of sending a message it asks me to verify my username and password and when I enter it the same verification boxs pops out again. I hVE Yahoo messaging and entered pop.mail.yahoo.com and smtp.mail.yahoo.com. What am I doing wrong? Is my username my email address? Im confused now.
How do I pick up my yahoo mail, I have set up every thing that is required put I can neither send nor recieve any mail. The set up is :-Incoming Mail Server (POP3): pop.mail.yahoo.com.au Use SSL, port: 995 Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.mail.yahoo.com.au Use SSL, port: 465, use authentication denziljm@yahoo.com.au Error message is :- Pop3, Server Response: '-ERR popgate unknown command' Prt 995, Secure (SSL): Yes Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18 ail.
I set up my email account in windows mail. No problem. My problem is that I use two different servers for mail and would like to have two different inboxes. The original email inbox is under local folders which is fine. For the second server I want a separate inbox. Is it possible to do this and if so how?
When using the email set-up wizard I come to a screen that says:
Set up e-mail servers
Incoming e-mail server type: (drop down menu w/choice of POP3, IMAP or HTTP)
Incoming mail (POP3 or IMAP) server: (blank space)
Outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) name: (blank space)
(box)Outgoing server requires authentication
how to fill this out? I have a WI-FI connection that is actually my neighbors service (they are friends and gave their approval for us to use it). Sorry to be so detailed but I noticed that others who posted similar Q's but were less so (detailed) got either vague answers or answers I didnt understand.
this is only the 3rd time I've posted this, so hopefully, 3rd time is a charm. I use OE script type stationery (Windows mail is supposed to be an 'enhanced' Outlook Express). Whenever an Incoming mail has an applet, Windows Mail Crashes.
I do not know if there is any cause and effect relationship between these two but since Windows installed some 10 updates two days ago,Windows Mail is unable to get down from the e-mail server of my I S P even a few incoming messages and that too even if I keep the Windows Mail open for one hour. I can of course connect to the WebMail facility of my I S P and see those messages but they will not get into my InBox of WinMail. Strangely, whereas WinMail says it is downloading those 2 or 3 messages (each of size 2K to 5K) for an hour, it is able to download Newsgroup or Microsoft Community messages (some of them 10 times longer) in a jiffy. So the problem is not with volume of downloading. If I close WinMail after waiting for a long time and try to reopen it, Vista says "another instance of WinMail is downloading messages". I have no choice left then but to do Control-Alt-Delete and end the Process. I tried to ask Vista to restore my system to the day before the Windows updates were installed but that Restore failed, according to Vista. Could anyone advise me as to how to restore my system to a working
I am having trouble downloading mail from my isp pop3 account. I receive the following error message:
Account: 'm.cabourn@ntlworld.com', Server: 'pop3.ntlworld.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR invalid user name or password.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
Up until about 5 days ago I could retrieve mail from this account but I now cannot
I have tried this every way I can using the guides. I can send mail but NOT Receive my mails. Triple checked all settings. Here is the error: Account: 'Yahoo mail Plus', Server: 'plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR popgate unknown command', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18
I'm home from college for the summer and i set up my windows mail so it receives mail from my UNH email address. Since I've been home i can receive mail but not send it. Does this have something to do with not being on the UNH server at home? Is there anyway i can fix it so i can send my mail from home?
I can post / reply newsgroup in microsoft news group with my new system (WM + vista), just as exactly this one does. But, I couldn't do so in my university's news group, it only worked fine with my system installed with XP + OE! Is it possible for some news servers do not accept posting / reply from WM / vista (*however, i can't read the newsgroup without any problem...)
I'm trying to send an email to someone on craigslist. I'm being asked to set up email servers: Incomming email server type- POP3, IMAP, HTTP? Incomming email server? Outgoing email server name?
i recently purchased a new laptop, which has Windows Live mail installed. I tried to set up an account using hotmail, which i could not do so i set up a live email address. each time i log on to my account i get the following error message
the host SMTP could not be found. please verify that you have entered the server correctly. I get the same message for the POP3 error message. so the questions are as follows:
1. what are the live server addresses? 2. where do i go in and change them?
Used to access my Hotmail account using Windows Mail. After re-installing my O/S, Windows Vista Home Premium, I can no longer set this up. When I get to the point where it asks for my e-mail address I input this, click on next, and the message "Windows Mail no longer supports the http servers used by Hotmail.......". I remember this happened when I bought my computer but managed to get round it, but can't remember how. I have a paid subscription to Windows Live Onecare and believe this is something to do with the "paid " subscription referred to on other threads.
I unchecked phishing. Mail came in. Second try, same POP3 error. Phishing remains unchecked. When I click send/recieve progress box comes up,says recieving, no arrow movement, 1 minute later error comes up.
I just recently started using windows mail. It was fine till a day ago and it asked me for my id and password. when I put the info in it doubled my mail. Everything I get now comes twice. I thought it was a Vista securiity thing or something.
Your pop3 server has not responded in 60 seconds is all it keeps saying and i have a cack log of incoming mail now Account: 'mail.btinternet.com', Server: 'mail.btinternet.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19
i have me emails with sky and use outllook to get them for over a week now i keep getting error codes when i log on i can send emails but cant receive them these are the error codes. Account: 'pop.tools.sky.com', Server: 'pop.tools.sky.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR not supported g9pf2811797gvc.9', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18d
Now that I am operating out of Windows Mail, is there something that notifies me that I have mail, like........... an envelope turning in the corner of my screen that states "You've got Mail", or some sound that alerts me on the screen that I have incoming mail?
When I go to windows mail I find that incoming mail is opening before i even select it. It has only just started doing this on its own. What could have happened
It appears as though several people are having the same problem as me. In the last two days, I have not been able to send email. The incoming still works, but outgoing does not.
The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Re: Test email from Knology technical support', Account: 'test', Server: 'smtp.knology.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 1025, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
I have talked with Knology tech support and they say that the settings are correct and the problem is on the Windows Mail side.
When I open it WM I get no incoming and this is the message I get... Ett ok??nt fel har uppst??tt. Konto: 'pop.bredband.net', Server: 'pop.bredband.net', Protokoll: POP3, Port: 110, Secure (SSL): Nej, Felnummer: 0x800C0148 I also have no access to the contents of my folders. If I right click on the folders and look at properties I see that there are messages in the folders, but I have no access to them.
My old laptop running Outlook is sitting on my desk now so I can work, but I need to get at the msgs in WM in my new computer. Why is it doing this and what do I need to do to have the dependibility I had w/ Outlook Express. And please don't tell me that I have to disable mail scanning functions. What M$ needs to do is enable it's software!
I am using ver. 6.0.6000.16386 (vista_rtm.061101-2205).
I have just had a test done and noticed that on my webmail from my provider there are 7 messages in the inbox. But when I download to Windows Mail, only 4 of the 7 actually come in!?
Is there a known bug or something (e.g. problem with the junkfilter?) There is no set rule from this sender and I have suspected since this several weeks now, so I would have noticed if a rule had misplaced them. Is there a logfile or something to look back on or a freeware tool I could download for diagnostics?
This is my last resort, otherwise I'll have to download thunderbird and neglect this unreliable Windows Mail programm.
is there a file size limit with windows mail? i have been sent files and they do not make it through to my email account with windows mail, but they are viewable at the yahoo server? is there a place where i can change the size of the files to be allowed to be received?
how do I get my contacts in my incoming mail display as names rather than email addresses. The contacts are in my address book with their full names and some show as their full names and others just show the email address.
I am trying to set up my account today but dont know what is incoming and outcoming server. My computer is windows vista and my email is at yahoo.com I have an account also with live.com Please let me know..my internet service privider is comcast ... not sure what other info is needed ....
