Monkey Proof Posted November 29, 2005 Author Share Posted November 29, 2005 i have both outlooks, i thought maybe setting up the express would be easier to do. i never used either outlooks before, i was just playing around with them. if i cant get yahoo to work with outlook i'm going to see about getting rid of it if its possible. i have regular yahoo. i see no need in paying for a premium service, i'm just cheap like that. what i really need to do is set up that gmail tarun sent me.

Capman Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Sounds to me like it is actually a problem with outlook, surely the same mistake couldn't have been made setting up outlook for gmail as was made when setting up outlook for yahoo. I say this because both times email could be sent but not received. This is something that used to happen to me a lot years ago and always cured itself when updating outlook express. I now think this would be a good time to give thunderbird a try, as it might cure everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Proof Posted November 29, 2005 Author Share Posted November 29, 2005 you can say that again...it was late for me lastnight when i set everything up, plus i had a callout so i didnt have time to double check for my mistakes. atleast i dont feel like outlook is this to me anymore.

Capman Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 How come I can access all my yahoo accounts with outlook express and thunderbird then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Tarun Posted November 29, 2005 Administrator Share Posted November 29, 2005 GMail Info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capman Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Maybe, but my latest yahoo account was only set up recently, I can't see why they would let UK users have pop access and not US users, when the service originated in the US. Btw, I have Thunderbird set up to check my isp account, my gmail account, & 4 yahoo accounts. All can send and receive. Outlook Express is still set up to check my isp account, 3 yahoo accounts, and my hotmail account. All can send and receive as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capman Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 I agree with Tarun this is a good idea. Not for UK users though we can't have gmail anymore has to be googlemail. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Proof Posted November 29, 2005 Author Share Posted November 29, 2005 i have everything exactly..samething tho. i am able to send gmail with outlook but not able to use the outlook inbox. one of the error messages in saying it cannot find ssl port, could this have to do with firewall settings?

Capman Posted November 29, 2005 Share Posted November 29, 2005 Even better, I still have the proper gmail address thanks to you sending me an invite before that deadline. I think that little no name company should give up now, they are just trying to jump on the bandwagon. I hope google wins, they deserve to for everything they have given to computer users.
