Email config woe

dannyjo22 · 19 Jan 2007 at 18:43

Using outlook express as always. I've moved house and they made me have new modem. I used the broadband installer to set up (ntl). Everything is working fine except outlook express.

I can recieve emails and reply to emails in my inbox but when i compose a new message I get....

"you do not have any accounts configured for sending email, please verify your account configuration"

????

Any ideas, I checked and the outgoing mail is correct smtp.ntlworld.com

1 Open Outlook Express.
2 Click on the "Tools".
3 Click on "Accounts".
4 Click once on your email account to highlight it.
5 Click on the "Set as Default" button.
6 Click on the "Close" button to return to Outlook Express.

Hope it helps
