Outlook Express send/receive issue

Postby Dave Eyeington » Wed Jan 25, 2006 11:44 pm

Hi,
I bought the software this evening and installed it. I wish to password protect internet access but allow Outlook Express at all times. I am using Outlook express on XP SP2. Outlook and IE share the same broadband connection.
I have added Outlook Express to the Alowed programs and currently have Email and Secure web pages added to Allowed Services.
The issue:
Outlook Express will start but status remains at Connecting on the taskbar indefinately. If I close Outlook Express and try to restart I receive a timeout error that says that an instance is already running and to Log off.

Any thoughts please.

Here on our Windows XP computers it works just fine. Please make sure that you have added to allowed programs the correct file:

Usually:
c:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe

Also, if you are running any anti-virus software that plugs into your e-mail system, make sure that you allow also the particular anti-virus program file that interacts with e-mail checking as well.

I would suggest you to check E-mail on Allowed Services tab.
