Re: outlook express won't send or receive
Are you still getting the password error?
The Invalid password error message can mean that any of the following
are wrong:
- POP3 server name
- Incoming Mail Server Account Name (some require the full e-mail
address user@somewhere.com, others just want the user part)
- Incoming Mail Server Password (often case sensitive)
- Incorrect use of Secure Password Authentication (SPA) - few severs
use this
- Incorrect use of SSL - few servers use this
- The mail server is having temporary problems
Check these settings in Outlook Express at Tools, Accounts, Mail,
Properties, Servers (Advanced tab for SSL). Check with your mail
service (generally your ISP) for the correct values. If the values seem
correct, retype them and click APPLY. In the event that the account
settings are corrupted in the registry, it might be necessary to delete
the mail account, restart OE and then set up the account again. In some
cases it might be necessary to set up a new identity in OE and create
the mail account there.

I'm really terribly confused.
[Make sure you also look at Michael's response, he may understand you better
than I.]
I don't know what "test area" means.
I don't know what ".net mail" refers to.
Are you connected through Verizon?
Generally, you can only send mail through the SMTP server that you are
connected to. Is Verizon your "local cable company"?
Are you trying to send Verizon mail through a different local cable company
and is the Verizon mail an HTTP, POP3 or IMAP account?
Is your Hotmail account working in OE or Outlook?
Is it a paid or free Hotmail account?
