Configuring Outlook Express
To configure
your Outlook Express or any other e-mail client, you need to know
your POP3 and SMTP servers. To find them out:
Your
provider's mail server may use different SMTP relays for sending
mail - POP before SMTP or SMTP AUTH. In POP before
SMTP, the relay system collects your IP address when you
authenticate yourself with the POP server, and then permits SMTP
relaying from that IP address for a short period of time. In other
words, if your server uses POP before SMTP, you need to check your
mail first, only then you can send your messages. If your mail
servers uses SMTP AUTH, you must configure your Outlook
Express to send a login and password not only when you receive mail,
but also when you send it. Ask your provider which relay the server
uses.
