Re: OK, I must be retarded or something...

OK looks like I have it part of the way working. I turned off SPA on the
main Outlook setup page and enabled it only on the "My SMTP server requires
me to log on..." I put in my username and password in there separately and
it worked sending and recieving. Now, how do I get it to work on the POP3
access side so that I can just have SPA checked on the main page and on the
"More Settings\Outgoing Server" section of Outlook, make it "Use the same
settings as my incoming mail server..."?

Thank you so much in advance,

-Harry
