I'm trying to move from using express to OL2003 and went through the process
of updating the OL2003 settings to match the Outlook Express settings.
Express works fine with these settings. I have AT&T DSL.

Server Information:
Incoming Mail is a POP3 Server
POP3 = POP3.xxxx.com
Outgoing mail (STMP) = mail.bellsouth.net
Incoming Mail Server:
Account Name = (e-mail address removed)
Password = xxxx
No SPA
Outgoing Mail Server = No Authentication
Server Ports
Outgoing SMTP = 25
No SSL
Incoming Mail (POP3) = 110
No SSL

When I test the settings it tests out fine but when I try to send an actual
test message, the message just sits there in the outbox. If I go and open
Express, I receive the test message.

Those settings don't look correct to me. I checked the Bellsouth Help pages
and they clearly state that outgoing authentication IS required. If Outlook
Express was working for you, why not import those account settings into
Outlook? File>Import and Export>Import Internet Mail Account Settings

Thanks, I think the problem may lie with BellSouth even though my incoming
and outgoing mail server is different. These same settings woorked fine in
Express so I'm not sure.
