The configuration is set up correctly. As I stated, I have gotten e-mails to
go through right after I set up Outlook. In fact, when I set it up, I had a
few e-mails in my Yahoo account that were transferred over to Outlook and
removed from my Yahoo inbox. I forwarded those e-mails to my other Yahoo
account so I would have them in my other Yahoo inbox. Just as a test I tried
to forward those same e-mails to the same Yahoo account I forwarded them to a
couple weeks ago and the "Send" button isn't even an option. It is grayed
out and nothing happens when I try to click it. I haven't made any changes
since I opened the Outlook account a couple weeks back, unless the changes
were made during the last Microsoft automatic update. Also, like I said in
my original post, if I try to send a new message, I can't even type in the
message area. Every time I hit a key there is a message at the bottom of the
screen stating "This modification is not allowed because it is locked". I
don't know how a new message can be locked. I've doublechecked all the
settings with the ISP, even though I haven't made any changes since it worked
right after installation. I'd be happier if I could at least have the option
to select "Send" and then get an error, but the "Send" isn't even an
available option. Thanks again for the help.
