outlook for lycos email

[EJH]

I'm trying to integrate my lycos email into outlook and have input the server
URL as "http://wedav.lycos.co.uk/httpmail.asp" but when I click on
"send/receive" I'm not able to send and get an error message:
Task 'http://wedav.lycos.co.uk/httpmail.asp - Sending' reported error
(0x800CCC0D) : 'The server could not be found.'
Can anyone help?

According to the Lycos Help site, if you have a basic subscription, you're
not able to access your lycos mail account via POP3 in Outlook. They don't
mention using a webdav-based method, so I'm going on the assumption that
you're using a third party program (such as hushmail) to get your mail.

If you do want to pay for their premium subscription, here is a link for
configuring the POP3 account in Outlook.

hushmail or another third party program, you may want to check their support
pages for information on how to configure it with Outlook.

HTH.
