Can't send e-mails in Outlook Express

Jazzycat

Hi,

I have set up my e-mail accounts with my home pc running XP pro and Outlook Express.

I have to use YPOPS software because it won't work otherwise. (I've no idea what this does but have read I needed it as mail accounts are yahoo and old btopen......)

However whenever I try and send an e-mail from Outlook it wont let me and asks for password which I enter but it never accepts.

Anyone got any ideas to help

Thanks guys

Who's your ISP? (You need to put your ISP's SMTP details for sending email).

Hi,

my ISP is madasafish - what info do I need to input and where?

thank you

Type in smtp.madasafish.com into the smtp box in the account settings and also you shouldn't need to log in to send email so untick the secure password authentication box for logging into your ISP in the account settings as well.
