Since I signed up for sbcglobal.net DSL for E-mail, it has messed up my outlook express. Now unable to send on Outlook. When I use my Spson Scanner to "scan to E-mail" it automatically tries to use Outlook Express. I have Microsoft Office Outlook working, but can not get this into the system. HELP! NO HELP FROM MICROSOFT, AND SBC CAN'T HELP ME EITHER. We do all the stuff requested, but still can't send. Only receive.:upset: :upset:

First off, try checking in control panel / internet options/ programs.
Make sure Outlook is selected, not Outlook Express as default mail handler.

If not , you just need to set up your same email account in Outlook Express that you have in Outlook.
Same username/ password and smtp and pop setting.


Note, that most broadband ISPs (DSL included) do not allow you to send mail using other email servers (other ISPs or your own website email) You can setup OE to recieve from the POP server for another mail account, but you must use the SMTP server info for your SBC account to send.
