in [Outlook Express]
|
From: kazzybee on 7 Feb 2010 18:05 Using Outlook Express 6, I have just set up a talktalk.net email adress. On opening OE I get the log on screen:Please enter username & password for the following server. Logon mail.talktalk.net. The details are already there but I enter them again, press OK but then the screen appears again. When I press cancel, I get the following - Problem login. Password rejected.Account: 'mail.talktalk.net', Server: 'mail.talktalk.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR 'Authorisation failed', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92. I have only recieved the welcome message from OE but have not received anythingelse or being able to send any. Help please

Help please See replies to your SAME post that you MULTI-posted in the other newsgroup. Learn to cross-post: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossposting http://www.blakjak.demon.co.uk/mul_crss.htm http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/xpost.html A point not made is that N multi-posted copies will consume N times the disk space for each of the separate copies of the same post. Cross-posted messages have just *one* copy on the server with links in the newsgroups back to the same single copy. Multi-posting wastes disk space on the server. Yes, your post may be small but remember that you consume N times the space on one server and then do so again on all the newsgroups servers worldwide. You waste more bandwidth getting N copies of your multi-posted message distributed to all the newsgroups servers worldwide. Cross-posting has just one copy of the message on an NNTP server, and only one copy gets propagated to other NNTP servers. To those visiting the newsgroups, cross-posting helps them see ALL the replies from those in the other RELATED newsgroup to which you linked your post. That way, they don't waste their time duplicating similar replies. Don't cross-post to more groups than needed if at all. Many consider cross-posting to more than 4 groups as rude and may filter out your post. The more groups you add, the less likely that they are related, the less accurate or focused are the targeted groups, or some of the included groups may already be encompassed by an included parent group. If they are subgroups under a topic, choose whether you will be specific or general in the targeted groups to which you post. Usenet-ignorants that shotgun their posts across multiple groups trying to capture as large an audience as possible will offend netizens with the poor aim. Multi-posting instead of cross-posting when shotgunning across multiple groups evidences you as a newbie, troll, or spammer.

If you must make identical posts to multiple newsgroups, please cross-post one (1) message to all of them. Thank you.
