Re: Help-Log off means can't get mail



Steve.

You gave two different errors, one related to 127.0.0.1 Port 9999 which is
the spam filter "Proxy" and then you gave the one below which looks plain
wrong, that is the port looks okay but the server name does not look
realistic. Something is messing with your settings. What is the name of the
Spam software and have you got a link so we can try and figure out if it's
that causing the trouble or something else getting mixed up with it as well.

It is no use at all trying to diagnose something like this if you have Anti
Spam, Anti Virus, Firewalls and Pop-Up blockers running because their
effects cannot be ignored. That is not to say there's something "Wrong" with
any of them, simply that it adds a whole level of uncertainty.

>>
>> Please let me know the result of Telnet.

>> that we create a new Outlook Express identity. A new identity is a new
>> environment for us to use Outlook Express. Creating new identity will not
>> do any damage to the old identity. To do this, please follow the steps
>> below:
>>
>> (1) Start Outlook Express, and click the File menu -> Identities -> Add
>> New
>> Identity.
>> (2) In the "Type your name" box, type a name for the identity.
>> (3) Click OK and then click "Yes" to switch to the new identity.
>> (4) When Outlook Express is started again, please reconfigure the email
>> account in Outlook Express and check if the problem still occurs.
>>
>> I hope the information above is helpful.
>>
>> If anything in my post is unclear, feel free to let me know.

>> Have a good day!
