Ubuntu
evolution package

Cant send email with namesco email account.

Asked by Frank Brennan

I have just opened an email account with namesco and have tried to set-up evolution on my netbook. I sent a email to this email address and I received it OK, but when I tried to send a email it failed with an error message "could not connect to pop3XXXXXXXXXXX.co.uk: Connection timed out"
The settings I have been given are,
Incoming Mail Server: pop3.XXXXXXXXXX.co.uk
Account Name: XXXXXXXXXXX.co.uk (Site Administrator)
Password: XXXXXXXXX
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Frank

Hello,

You need to check the SMTP settings in Evolution.

Can you ping the pop server. xxxing out the email server is worthless as anyone can EASILY websearch to find the servers and it protects you from nothing....

Can you help with this problem?
