25F,
That explains a good part of the problem. Now to figure out why using IE, he cannot send though Hotmail or Yahoo. (He has tried using Internet Explorer to sent email, without using Outlook Express, right wink wink?)
I would still like to see what happens on someone else's computer, when he tries to send a test email though the Internet Explorer (with Hotmail and Yahoo).
Take Care,
Richard
P.S. wink wink, if he still has a problem sending email and we cannot solve it in the new day or so, I will setup an email account for him on my email server, which he can access though a brower, and keep in touch with you.
