Hi, never had this problem before, but failed to send an email from Outlook Express with the message:
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was '[email removed]@yahoo.com'. Subject 'Members Only May 1-3 Weekend Sale', Account: 'mail.qtiq.com', Server: 'mail.qtiq.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '501 Bad address syntax', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 501, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
Please help!

Whenever I attempt to send-out an e-mail, a message appears asking me about if I use POP, POP3 or HTML. I don't know which I have so my messages never get sent. What must I do?

I read the article but need to know where i would look to fi nd the pop3 address for windows live mail.

Everytime I try to send mail in Outlook Express it always says error: either the server name or email address is not correct or server not found make sure you are using the correct server name etc. Help? I don't know what to do for this problem.

Not to sound to snotty, but consider following the advice in the error message you were given: confirm that your SMTP settings are correct. Check with your ISP or Email provider for what they should be.
