Dear Sir/ Madam,
Iwas trying to configure MS outlook 2007 as per the instructionand failed to do so. The error message that I got is as follows:
Task ‘mesfin_haile@yahoo.com – Sending’ reported error (0×80042109) : ‘Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).’
Could you please assist me in solving the problem.
regards,
Thanks for your setting. I have successfully configured Gmail in outlook 2003 using pop3.I am using very slow internet connection through mobile eventhen I succeed.
Thnaks once again for settings..
I set up my Outlook settings as mentioned here to get my yahoo mail into Outlook but when I do a send/receive or test account settings, a login screen comes up:
Enter Network Password
Server: pop.mail.yahoo.com
User Name: jagoeller1
Password: my yahoo password goes here
Login screen keeps coming up as if credentials are wrong. Am I putting in the wrong information somewhere?
As for inquiries regarding Yahoo settings – you have to have a yahoo premium a/c to have the pop3/smtp setting to work. Gmail and Hotmail do not charge for pop/smtp.
