MS Office Forum / Outlook / Installation and Configuration / February 2006Test Account Settings never gets through
and I always get this:UNABLE TO SEND TEST MESSAGE;PLEASE VERIFY THE E-MAIL FIELD. I've retyped it on and on. No luck. Any suggestions. Millions of thanks Have you verified your outgoing mail server? > and I always get this:UNABLE TO SEND TEST MESSAGE;PLEASE VERIFY THE E-MAIL > FIELD. I've retyped it on and on. No luck.

Millions of > > thanks Where are you getting the message about the test message? Sounds like Outlook is finding the server, essentially proving it exists, but it can't use it for outgoing mail. Is that about right? > Yes. Plus, when TESTing ACCOUNT SETTINGS everything is fine,e.g. it finds > both incoming and outgoing server, but that's it. Thanks Ye, it looks like it, because when I create a new message and press send it goes to OUTBOX. I then open it from there and press SEND again and I get this message: UNABLE TO SEND MESSAGE.PLEASE VERIFY THE E-MAIL ADDRESS IN YOUR PROPERTIES.THE SERVER RESPONDED:??0 AUTHENTICATION REQUIRED. Does that make sense? Cheers > Where are you getting the message about the test message?

Does that make sense? Sure, and it tells you what you must do. Click Tools>E-mail Accounts>Next. Select your acchount, click Change, then More Settings. Click the Outgoing Server tab and put a check in the "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication". Click OK, then Finish. Stop and restart Outlook.  SignatureBrian Tillman Thanks Brian, but that was already done. Don't worry if you can't get me any further help. I'll keep trying. But it's really annoying not to be able to send E-mails.

Stop and restart Outlook. No, Wendy. I just gave up and am no longer using it. Sorry, I know how frustrating it is... > Hi Rosi, > [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > > Server tab and put a check in the "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires > > > authentication".
