Pop3 account problems
I am currently unable to download or send mail from
Outlook 2003. I have configure my mail account to go to pop.ukgateway.net and using smtp.gateway.net as the outgoing mail server. The port numbers are set as 110 for outgoing and 25 for incoming and encryption is not activated. I also connect via AOL and have been able to collect my mails with this setup in Outlook 2000 with no problems. When I now test my mail connection in Outlook 2003 I get an error message saying "The specified server was found but there was no response from the server. Please verify that the port an SSL information is correct." Could you please advise me about what I may be doing wrong, is there a known fault when downloading mail via Outlook 2003? I am able to download from this mail account, with the same settings via my mobile phone without any problems, so the problem seems to be Outlook related. Please contact me via I can download my mails via my telephone, so I will read it from there until I have rectified the fault. Regards Scot Haynes |

Pop3 account problems
Scot I am an entirely new user and unable to do much, but I do know that when I activated account I had to use phrase "pop-server" rather than just "pop" and "smtp-server" rather than just "smtp." Maybe helps. Wish I could get further than that, but unable to do that now. Sends me error message "unable to read LDAP directory server (81)." Huh?

Pop3 account problems
Scot, I have a similar problem. Upgraded from Office XP
to Office 2003 and everything OK except can't get my mails off POP3 or SMTP server. I have SpamKiller which continues to work OK. Disabling SpamKiller Norton Internet Security and every other application has no effect. It's a family PC and all the accounts are the same. In the account set up page "Internet E-mail Settings (POP3)" I can "Test Account Settings." with no problem/errors. I don't understand randi's suggestion. I've spent 2-weeks on and off searching and trying various options but no luck todate. Found a few others with similar problem though. Tried going back to Outlook XP but that doesn't work now. Driving me mad. Good luck Gary -----Original Message----- I am currently unable to download or send mail from Outlook 2003.
