Sending Netzero messages

[ducksnelvis]

I'm in Outlook 2003. My hotmail is setup and i am sending and receiving
those messages with no problem. I am receiving my netzero messages my
incoming mail server set as pop.netzero.net But i can't send from my netzero
address it sits in my outbox and the Send/Receive progress box shows the
following message:

Task 'NetZero - Sending' reported error (0x80042109) : 'Outlook is unable to
connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive
this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider
(ISP).

I have tried setting my outgoing server as both smtp.netzero.com and
smtp.netzero.net with the same results. I never knew if my email was .net or
..com but i think both come to me

Have you checked with NetZero's web pages on email setup?

i haven't e-mailed them since i asked for help with setup. they told me to
use .com for both the pop and smtp but after i wasn't receiving messages
either, i changed it to .net and now i receive the messages but still can't
send. but to answer your question, no i haven't e-mailed them regarding the
error
