Re: can't receive or send e-mail

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Hello Gary,
sorry to pop in but the link you gave me didn't work. Hence I can only
communicate via "REPLY" and not from "NEW"
Question: How do I get Mail to ask for the Logon info (user name, password)
before I access messages. And how do I get it to stop asking me to "logon"
before it will send a message? Currently, I have Tools,Accts, Highlight
Pop.lGmail., Servers , Emjjail User Name & Password filled in, check under
remember password, but don't have Logon using secured Password checked. I
like the idea of asking for logon before a sessionn. Not before sending
email. Is this doable or am I being a pain in the @ss?
As always, thanks for your time and expertise.

Regarding the send failure, go to Tools, Accounts, select that account,
Properties, Advanced, and unselect the SSL option for the outgoing
(SMTP) server.

It isn't obvious why the receive is failing. The receive settings are correct.
It is possible that the cause is interference from a non-compatible
antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off your antivirus email scanning function does not resolve
your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it
is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus
programs: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
