up email servers: Incomming email server type- POP3, IMAP, HTTP? Incomming email server? Outgoing email server name?
i got a new pc at work and not knowing what winmail was (outlook replacement) deleted everything that pertained to it. now i cant set it up and i need it. all my other coworkers use outlook so it would make it easier on me if i had it to. at first i tried to set it up but didnt know how to find the info on my mail server so i hit anything i could to get out of it. We have a mail service through a site called Proapp. how i can fix this or have i done something irreversible?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have no idea what any of this is about, all very confusing and frustrating. Im trying to send an email to the school from a site i have to send it from. And it says to set it up but i dont know what the incoming e-mail server type is. And dont know what IMAP or POP3 is and what goes in there for the incoming mail server. As well as the outgoing e-mail server name (SMTP) I'm so clueless and usually confused when it comes to technical stuff on cumputers.

View 5 Replies View Relatedsince upgrading tp Vista, Both windows Mail and Live mail do not always donnload messages from my pop 3 accounts. I have to open my accounts online and when I have opened the accounts both mail and live mail will then down load messages, This does not happen all of the time, so I know the account settings are correct. It is just annoying that I have to check online every day rather than just checking mail or live mail. This never happened with XP running Outlook Express. is this a problem with Vista, or my mail servers
View 5 Replies View RelatedI tried to post this earlier, but I don't see it. Sorry if this is a duplicate.I have an HP laptop with Vista as the OS. I use Windows Mail to access my aim.com email. I've used this for over a year. Suddenly, I am getting the following error. I can connect to the aim web mail, so my password, etc is valid and working. This seems to be an SSL error, but I have not changed my configuration of the servers in Windows Mail. Any ideas why this is suddenly occurring?
Error message: The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop.aim.com', Server: 'pop.aim.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
There are discussions on this general subject but no aparent resolution. About two months ago I was sometimes prevented from opening photo attachments on some emails received from the same party and sometimes could open them. By this I mean, I would click on the paperclip where a list of photos would appear and I'd click on on photo and I'd get a message saying: "Windows cannot find file name (photo captions used by sender).jpg. Make sure your typed the name correctly and then try again." Well, of course I didn't type the file name; the sender did. I could click on the save attachments, and once saved to a folder I could open them from the folder. I forwarded the mail to others, and they report no problems in viewing the photos. I can also view the photos in the email itself, but it would be necessary to scan up and down and from left to right to view the whold photo and the caption would not appear.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've just got a new PC with the dreaded Vista installed so I thought I'd use Windows Mail rather than an older version of Outlook I've been using on my previous PC. I send out email to a number of lists and I use Bcc to hide all of the addresses. Trouble is, I can't find Bcc in Windows Mail. Is it there and if so where is it?

Not sure why but I get (often) very bad performance using NNTP with Windows Mail (Windows Business) Often I will click on a group or message and wait and wait. After I while I get the msg that the server has not responded and I can stop or wait. This happens almost every time I use Usenet. It is not isolated to the Microsoft group as I also get Usenet posts through external-September.
I have used Usenet for 15 years and never had this problem till recently. People who use the same ISP as me don't have this problem. On occasion I can use it just fine so it is not a (personal) firewall issue.
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. how I can reverse it so I get my mail back in my university account?

My Windows Mail was activated through my previous web host in Portugal, but I changed to a new web host on 1st June and I no longer have access to Windows Mail. I would like to still use it. I am using cvtelecom.cv in Cape Verde. I have an alternate mail system with the new host but would prefer to use Windows Mail. What info do I need and from whom? I wish to reactivate the account and email address I was using up.
