Problems Receiving Mail

[Acklins]

Hi,

I just became a member immediately after I got my Airport Express problem fixed here.

I have another problem.

I had to trash my preferences and am now resetting all of my programs.

Since this I have not been able to get my Mail program to work. I have put in all of the info necessary including the 'incoming mail server' and the 'outgoing mail server'. Actually these are the same.

I have sent mail out but can't seem to get any mail.

What am I missing??


Thanks.

Acklins

Incoming and outgoing should be different.

mail.yourisp.com - for in coming

smtp.yourisp.com - for out going

Usually ISPs will have instructions for setting up incoming and outgoing servers.
