    pdxbob - 2005-05-15

    I installed version 1.44 on Tiger using the installer.  I followed the instructions for setting up the account, including setting the outoing server to "None".

    I can receive emails without any problems, however, when I try to send I get an error window: "Cannot send message using the server oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com".  I get the opportunity to select a different server (choices are oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com, services.msn.com and smtp.email.msn.com).    No matter which of these I choose,  I receive the same error message.

    By the way, I had installed an earlier version several weeks ago, but never really used it.

    Any help or debugging tips appreciated...

      I should have mentioned that it is an  @msn.com email account, not hotmail.com

      I uninstalled and reinstalled, and the problem went away.    Somehow I had a bad outgoing mail server default.
