Thanks for that. Yes i didnt actually find that address anywhere i just assumed it was correct as it was used by another person, i found out previously through another forum. I have just changed over to my eircom broadband and used the smtp.eircom.net address which i have found to be correct. But im still getting an error, it's now saying it is rejecting the address but they are both valid email addresses. What could i be leaving out?? Im lost with this one! Thanks in advance, Aoife.
