Outlook 2007 and SMTP over port 587
I use Outlook to get my POP3 email from my roadrunner (rr) account, I use it
from within the rr network and from outside. With Outlook 2003 I setup port 587 secure SMTP and it worked from both inside and outside the rr network. I switched to Outlook 2007 and now need to change the account setting when I switch networks, turn off authentication when inside the rr network and then turn it back on when outside (e.g. from work). I still have the old notebook with Outlook 2003 and it still works without changing the settings, obviously my setup for username and password are correct, because it works from outside, obviously Microsoft has changed something with 2007 and the way it authenticates, any help here would be appreciated. |

Outlook 2007 and SMTP over port 587
Hmmm, I use those same sort of settings for my provider's SMTP server on &
off network and they work find in OL2007 & OL2010. Might something on your home net be blocking port 587? "GoDawgs" wrote in message ...
