Hi Prophetess12, I'm 'happy' everything is now working for you. All the Best, -Captain Happy More

My ISP (AT&T) solved the problem. They block port 25, so I allowed tech support to program my settings so Incredimail worked properly. I no longer have any problems. Incredimail tech was no help. I needed my ISP to set up the ports they allowed to access Hotmail... More

Please post here if you are able to send with no phantom messages. Because I still cannot. Under incredimail, I deleted the hotmail account and manually installed it again, because it makes no difference WHAT you call Hotmail. That name is for your information, so you... More

But, can you SEND e-mail from Incredimail now? I can receive e-mail with the Pop3 setting, but I cannot send e-mail with the smtp.live.com setting. I did a server test and can reach the server, but I cannot send any e-mail out until the server excepts the smtp.live... More

Thanks Sharon, Port 587 worked for Outlook Express and Microsoft Office Outlook 2003. I'll now work on Incredimail's settings. They do NOT make it easy for Joe average. More
