Hi All Does anyone know how to make Outlook Express do a Pop authentication before attempting to send e-mail? If I connect to my mail server with messages in my outbox it tries to send them before receiving the messages that are there and so I get an error - or at least I think this is what is causing the problem! Thanks James ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
