| | I just set up Mozilla Thunderbird. It is my first time to use an email client although I have heard of POP3, Microsoft Outlook and Thunderbird along time ago, just that I am too lazy to configure everthing and I thought it was much easier to use a web-based email account like Gmail.
My problem now is - I can't send messages from my Trap 17 email account. It says it has a failure connecting to the SMTP server (or the outgoing server). I used correct server url. Does anyone having the same problem? I have downloaded the emails to my PC but I can't send messages.
I set up Thunderbird beacuse my client (I design websites), wants his employees to have their own email addresses from their company domain, and I want to know how this thing works before I could create their account. If I can't do it right on my account there would be a big chance that I will be having problems with their emails as well. |

You need to enter a SMTP server. If you put in a SMTP server address, then you may need a user name and password.

Your email client is giving you the can't connect to SMTP server..... This is probably your firewall settings actually. Let me guess, Norton Internet Security probably. You also are more than likeley using the Service Pack 2 for Windows XP. You'll need to open the SMTP port in your firewall. SMTP port is 25 and the POP port is 110. I suggest opening in and out transfers for both ports. That should solve your problems assuming that this is the problem. Like said before, be sure that you enter your SMTP server settings in your mail client. vujsa

My SMTP server address is correct, as well as the POP and SMTP ports. My Mcafee firewalls allows the connection for Thunderbird to the internet. what could be the problem.

Hey guys! I can't ask in shoutbox so I've got to use the slow way. : / As you've
probably read, I need it for my website's registration, I've learned this by asking in the
Drupal(a CMS) Support, this good man said that I should have an SMTP server setup for it to work,
unfortunately, I don't know if Trap17 haves it and I don't know how to access it. If there
is none, could you recommend a free solution? If there is one, could you be so kind of teaching me
how to use/access it? Thanks by now. P.S: Go Trap17 crew!...

was wondering though if i delete a message from outlook express by deleting it then going to the
trash and then empty the trash, is the message then deleted from my hosted website? I want to know
because if not then i want to know how to delete the messages for sure. I dont want to waste space.

aplication process, and will lead to increase levels of spam in every member's inbox. This is
the only thing that is wrong with any part of the Trap17 site. Editing topic title ...
