Re: One workstation can't access email from ISP - CROSSPOST

Something is blocking you. Given you are having problems with a single
client it would suggest a local firewall or port blocking app. If you are
sure it is not the Windows XP firewall look elsewhere.

NSLOOKUP works to the POP and SMTP servers, but PING times out and TELNET,
"could not open a connection to the host on port 110 (25). Connect
failed."

Start with the basics. Make sure that name resolution is functioning
correctly - nslookup, make sure there is actually physical connectivity -
ping and then telnet to the ISP servers (110 for POP3 and 25 for SMTP) to
see if you can actually connect.

=========================

SBS 2003 Premium, ISA 2004, WSUS, Exchange - all patches/updates
current.

Tried last week to switch-over from ISP email (POP/SMTP) to using
Exchange.
Long story - couldn't get it to work, so switched back to where we were.

Now one of the workstations - a Dell Latitude D820 laptop - can't access
the
ISP incoming or outgoing mail servers.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Outlook 2003, deleted and recreated the
account in Outlook, and rebooted many times - still no change. Also
tried
doing a repair from Control Panel >> Add/Remove Programs - no change.
I next tried creating an email account for him on my workstation using
his
info - and it worked - so tried uninstall/reinstall again on his
laptop -
still won't work. Also ensured the Firewall Client was working
correctly - it is.

What am I missing???
