I recently restored Office 2000 to my computer, after data recovery
from a crash. I can now receive Outlook emails from my ISP account
fine, but I cannot send any emails. My account settings look okay for
incoming and outgoing mail through the ISP. I did notice that Outlook
does not save my password-- is this a registry problem? How do I fix
it? The ISP support person was no help.
There would be some error message when the send fails. Copy it here so we
know just exactly WHAT is the error. Your description is far too vague ("it
don't work"). Copy and paste what is the error message during the mail
poll. Also, before doing a send, enable logging, exit the e-mail client,
delete any old logfile, and restart the e-mail client to do a mail poll.
Then disable logging so we don't have to look at a huge logfile of many poll
events when just one will suffice. However, when posting the contents of
any error message or logfile, be sure to munge your e-mail address or any
other personal or sensitive information (e.g., use "<myemailaddr>" instead
of wherever your real e-mail address is shown). This is a public place!
As far as not remembering the passwords, go to
http://support.microsoft.com/, advanced search, pick "Outlook 2000", and
search on "remember password" (all words). One of the KB articles should
mention something about "not remembering password for POP3 account" and I
suspect that's the one you need to read (you will need to edit the registry,
so back it up first or at least export the branch or keys they suggest you
edit or delete!).
