Anyone know anything about the above question?

Ive have set the account up, but it still wont send or recieve emails.

I have recently set up a BT internet broadband connection, The line will not be activated untill monday! I dont think this the problem as i can still access it by logging into the bt web site, but I would like access it through my outlook 6.

I have you used MAIL.BTINTERNET.COM for both severs incoming and outgoing.

The severs numbers are correct as far as i know! 110 for incoming and 25 for outgoing!

The sever authenticity is switched on!

does anybody know of anything else i can do before i ring BT and speak to someone on the other side of the world ie india!

cheers Adam

Mine works with those settings, so I suspect you're account isn't activated yet.

Have you put in your E-mail address, username and password?

Everything else you have put in is correct I too have Ingoing and outgoing set to the mail.btinternet.com.

cheers mate,

maybe, I can still access it though, just by logging into the BT web site!

I can use it as normal then, just not through outlook express!

The outlook option is just easier than logging into bt every time i want read an email!

JPOR, yeah my password/username and email are all in!

Have you tried unticking the server authenticity?
I have mine set-up on Outlook 2003 and I don't have any authenticity checked.
