I was advised to set-up separate identities in order to
help read my hotmail account through Outlook Express 6.
I can receive mail all day long, but do not have any
outgoing mail settings (they are greyed out) and can't
send mail.

I have tried to set-up this under the Main Identity, of
which one @msn.com works and ONE @hotmail.com LOL I
tried to duplicate the settings of the one hotmail
account, and have, but mine still won't send out - only
receive!

After reading 26 pages of postings, all I see is this is
a growing problem? and have tried many of the fixes, but
none have worked yet.

Anyone else?

:-)

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source

references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:
