Evening folks.

Marianne was kind enough to set up an email address - sales@moornapublications.com - for me yesterday and I followed the downloadable instructions to get it working for my site moornapublications.com but I haven't been successful in getting it working, but I am wondering if it is because I am using the same password for sales@moornapublications.com as I am for moornapublications.com so the two may be conflicting, if not I have no idea why the sales@ email won't work for me, so can you offer any suggestions, but if it is because I stuffed things up with using the same password for both email receiving how can I change the password for the sales@ one now?

The other thing that I could be doing wrong is entering the wrong info in the email setup frames as
I find it sighty confusing

In the 'email servers names' box I have been entering - mail.sales@moornapublications.com - in the incoming box, and - mail.aapt.net.au - in the 'outging mail SMTP server' box as that's my ISP provider

In the 'internet mail logon' box I've been entering - sales@moornapublications.com - and my chosen password in the 'password' box, then clicking finish when that's all accepted.

If the above is wrong please tell me what is wrong with it so I can do it all over again.

Thanks

King Dumbarse (Once more) lol

Dear king,

Please advise what error messages you are getting as your suggestion of password conflict above would not be a problem.

Thanks, in anticipation,
Roger

I hope you're tugging your forelock when you address the king lol.

When I enter - mail.sales@moornapublications.com - in the 'incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP server' box I get an Internet connection Wizard pop up box telling me:
"The specified POP3 server does not appear to be a valid server name, do you want to use it anyway?"

If I click YES I can continue filling in the rest of the boxes as shown on your instructions for Outlook Express.

When I re-open Outlook Express to check for email etc. I get an error message box come up saying"

The host 'mail.sales@moornapublications.com' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'mail.sales@moornapublications.com', Server: 'mail.sales@moornapublications.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11004, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

in the errors part and this in the tasks area:

Tasks Status Connection
Chck for new messages on mail.sales Failed Local area network

So nothong works for my new sales email box as it doesn't recognise it.
