18185	2001-09-04 21:23:00	I have Outlook98 installed on a Win95B machine running an external Dynalink 33.6 modem (actually branded as 1428VQE but with a 33.6 sticker on it - probably an early upgraded model). I can receive mail via Outlook(including messages with attachments) but cannot send - even a plain text message. I've tried everything to trouble-shoot the problem: removed Outlook and Office97 then reinstalled, shifted the Modem from Com 1 to Com 2 (this actually helped, as on Com 1 I couldn't even connect to the Internet), reinstalled the Modem software countless times (although I'm not convinced I've got the right driver for the beast) and checked my SMTP settings for each account. Any suggestions?	Guest (0)

Seems fine now, so if this is potentially your problem suggest you keep trying without making too many radical changes to your settings.	Guest (0)

I have seen similar comments about IHUG in the past, but probably can't blame them as I have no trouble accessing the Internet from another computer at home (new PC, 56K modem).	Guest (0)
