Couple Of Questions

[Xenophon]

Somebody pls help.

No 1 - what settings do I put in Outlook to set up my e-mail
No 2 - where do I check how much gigs I have used?

For the first question change the smtp settings to smtp.wbs.co.za leave your Pop the same as it was (if its for your wbs mail account use pop.wbs.co.za)

For question 2 go to helpdesk.wbs.co.za and click bandwidth put your username and password in, and voila

Doesn't work? When I did it I chose Pop3 account, is this right? and my username is it just that or @wbs.co.za

Hi pop is pop3.wbs.co.za and yr user name is xxxxx@wbs.co.za

Now it doesn't accept my password.

When did you get the account? Could be that they have'net set it up yet. I e-mailed them when I got mine and they sorted it out the next day. When using the bandwidth monitor, you just use your username without the @wbs.co.za - try using the web e-mail function on i-bursts site and see if that works - again just put in your user id without the @wbs.co.za. If that does'nt work at least you know the prob is'nt on your side.

I had the same problem as you, with the whole password thing after I set up the account. I phoned I-burst and they said the account wasn't set up, after that it still didnt work as I had set something up incorectly, so check everything again, everything that everyone has said so far is correct! but the pop setting is pop3.wbs.co.za, not just pop.wbs.co.za

You can fix this under user detail in the same place you check your bandwidth

You might go looking for pst repair and troubleshoot outlook express. I have been using it without problem since it came out.
