MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / October 2007Outlook and POP3 server
I have oe setup on my network pc's. On the home edition, my newsgroups are working fine. But on my xp pro. my outlook express has a problem. I can read my newsletters fine. But I am unable to syncronize them, because of error. My oc says, POP3 server cannot be found.My question is, where would I go to get help with that problem?  SignatureDiana Jean This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the Office family for Intel PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting in one of these newsgroups: microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?ICP=GSS3&NewsGroup=microsof t.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;news groups microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?ICP=GSS3&NewsGroup=microsof t.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;new sgroups microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?ICP=GSS3&NewsGroup=microsof t.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;news groups microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?ICP=GSS3&NewsGroup=microsof t.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to post but it works for some people) Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here: http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/ >I have oe setup on my network pc's.

[quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Here's another: > news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general I'll bite and ask a stupid question... you mention that you are trying to work with POP3 accounts but I see a lot of references to "HTTP MAIL" accounts that are also failing. Might consider removing all e-mail accounts from Outlook and just keep the setup simple and try a single POP3 account setup. Once you get it working, then add other accounts. What else can we come up with... you really don't mention it, but did your ISP outsource its e-mail to yahoo or are you trying to get a Yahoo Plus account working? Reason I ask is that the "free" yahoo accounts don't allow POP3 access. Other than that, watch out for 3rd party security software that includes personal firewall services. You might have to configure said product to allow the executable "outlook.exe" to have internet access. And to answer your questions, yes, you can uninstall Office/Outlook 2007 and fall back to Outlook Express. Heck, you can continue using Outlook Express even with Outlook 2007 installed. /neo PS - if you open a command prompt, can you ping pop.mail.yahoo.com and get 4 good responses? If you get an error message or no responses, then check your internet connection first. >I get multiple errrors..The host '"pop.mail.yahoo.com"' could not be found. > Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.

Use POP/SMTP for POP accounts. Yahoo doesn't support HTTP accounts. Moreover, if you have a free Yahoo account, it doesn't support POP, either.
