POP and SMTP settings
I have always had a Freeserve email address. I have always sent email via outlook express, but lately my outlook will only download my emails and not send any.
I can look into my freeserve address via the orange website and i can send and receive emails fine, if I do it on the web based email window, but when I try and send any email from my freeserve in outlook, it does not work. THe same happens with my partners wanadoo email address. I also have a btinternet email address which works perfectly on my outlook.
I have win XP running outlook express 6. Could it by my smtp or pop settings???

When you leave an ISP for another, this often happens, ie you cannot use the former ISP's smtp settings to send but often they will allow messages to be received, using your old email details.
