I have sancharnet account. I have configured the windows mail but not able to
send or receive mail. kindly help me out. I get following message

The host 'nmra.sancharnet.in' could not be found. Please verify that you
have entered the server name correctly.
Subject 'ghghgh', Account: 'Dental College', Server: 'nmra.sancharnet.in',
Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 11001, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0D


The host 'nmma.sancharnet.in' could not be found. Please verify that you
have entered the server name correctly.
Account: 'Dental College', Server: 'nmma.sancharnet.in', Protocol: POP3,
Port: 110, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D
 
I was able to contact both servers, so they exist.
It is very unusual to have SSL security on ports 25 and 110.
So, either your SSL setting is wrong, or else your ports
are wrong. Check with your ISP.

Gary:

My SSL ports (Incoming 25 and Outgoing 110) are exactly those of VivekSang
and I am having the same problem but different ISP (Charter Pipeline)! Does
that have any meaning? Does point to Windows Vista not the ISP? Anyway, only
the ISP can determine what port we should use?

Cheers,

You cannot send or receive from home?
As far as I can determine, Charter does not use SSL.
Only your ISP can determine what port numbers and associated
settings their mail server uses.

The other consideration is that if your SMTP server only works
on port 25, you will not be able to use it when you carry your
laptop away from home.
