    Hi ! :D
    I'm having a problem with OE keeping the pop3 server address,
    I set it up right and it works fine, but if I close OE and open it again it changes the pop3 to "localhost ", then takes the right pop3 and adds it to the end of my account name with a "/" after my account name. when it does that I can get mail, and when I send it, no one gets it.

    I had this computer hooked up to my network, cable connection with router, now it's by itself with a dial up connection.

    It's your anti virus doing this. If you're receiving mail ok then don't do anything.

    I never would have thought that, ...Ok.
    I can get mail, but I can not send it, well I can send it, it goes to my Sent folder, but it doesn't reach it's destination, don't know where it goes.
    I'm using PC-Cillin 2000.
