Hi Our Stanley
Thanks for the help regarding OE6 which is now installed but I still have A problem with it not working, when I write a email it goes through the downloading but cannot send, A message appears as follows
the message cannot be sent because the server rejected the senders e-mail address the senders address is(then my correct e_mail add and then my account server info which are all correct) Then goes on PROTOCOL SERVER RESPONSE 501 syntax error IN PARAMENTERS OR ARGUMENTS POST 587 SECURE ERROR 501 ERROR NO Qx8000CCC78
Have you or anyone any Idea whats wrong as this is doing my head in good job I live in a bungalow r I would have jumped by now
By the Way The no 587 was what the ins ructions told me to change in the set up before it was 25 is that a clue
Cheers

The link was a generalisation, I'm not familiar with Aol you may require the assistance of a dedicated Aol user.

Ok Our Stanley,
I,ll try AOL but not sure they will help as I think its an OE problem. In case you did not realize I got that number from the Link you gave me I tried setting the number back to 25 it made a difference in respect of a dialog box I got before no appearing do you think that the numbers are pointing to different Ports ? Cheers
PS nothing wrong with the Link its very easy its just the number maybe it depends
on my setup.

Are you trying to use your AOL connection to send e-mail using another ISP's e-mail account? To try to prevent spam, most ISPs will only allow mail from their own e-mail accounts to be sent through the connection. It's a pain, but anything that reduces spam has got to be worth living with.

HI Rob.
No all I am trying to do is to send/receive emails from Outlook Express while my my provider is AOL. I have followed all the info and links given me by you guys on the forum with I might add their patience but up to yet not been able to send a email. It seems there is an error 0x000cccDF checking that out as far as I understand it something about "Inactivity of account" whatever that might be., it seems I have not been able to contact anyone using this combination AOL/OE 6 that knows the problem.
I know that I can manage without OE6 as I have for a few years with Aol but thought I would have a reserve should Aol have a problem, unlikely well yes but would be reassuring and more to the point up till now with the help of the forum I have not failed to accomplish a project and its driving me crazy (nearly swore at the wife yesterday) and won,t accept defeat with out a struggle
Cheers Rob!

Can you access your AOL email via AOL.com homepage? Inactivity of account usually means they will wipe your account after a set period of it not being used (usually 3 months I think).

Hi RicheaP
Yes I have no problem sending/recieveing emails from AOL or YAHOO, MSN,
I do,nt know if you read the post when I mentioned in the AOL/HELP it mentions having to unstall and reinstall my Password in the registry but I am not sure about that but I suppose it will do no harm what do you think Cheers

If you're going to be messing about with the registry, then make sure you back it up first. Sorry I can't give any more advice.

I hope you are putting smtp in your settings, not SMPT as you spelt it in your initial post ... 
simple mail transport protocol.
