Outllook Incoming Mail Server Changes Itself
I have recently purchased a Dell Laptop with XP Home Edition.
I am using Tiscali ISP,Mc Fee Security Centre. Problem is that although I setup my pop.tsicali.co.uk as i the incoming server after less than one day this gets changed to an internal IP address which means that I cannot receive any email. This happens with both Outlook Express and Outlook 2003. I have read an article in a recent Microsoft magazine article that indicates that no-one knows what causes this or what the fix is!!! As Dell ship all the products as part of the standard offering surely lots of people are gettin this problem. Can anyone give me advice of how to resolve this? -- Alan |

Outllook Incoming Mail Server Changes Itself
If the mail server address is getting changed to localhost or 127.0.0.1, it
means that you have a security program (most likely antivirus software) that is installed that can scan email as it is downloaded. You would have to disable that feature if you want the server name to stick. Since you mention McAfee, I would start with it. "Alan" wrote in message ...
