OE can't connect to Newsserver through LAN
X-post to OE6 newsgroup, following winston's lead.
OE Tools Accounts News [msnews.microsoft.com] Properties Connection Always connect using... (uncheck). -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) witan wrote: I have a LAN connection to Internet, and also a Dial-Up connection for emergencies. Using the LAN connection, I have been trying to set up a newsreader account in Outlook Express, choosing msnews.microsoft.com as the NNTP server. OE tries to download newsgroups from the server, but fails, giving the error message "Unable to Connect to the Server". The "details" are as follows. Configuration: Account: msnews Server: msnews.microsoft.com Protocol: NNTP Port: 119 Secure(SSL): 0 Code: 800ccc0e If I use "FeedReader", there is no problem. Also, there is no problem in OE if I use Dial-up, but, for obvious reasons, I would like to use OE with my (24-hr) LAN connecion. Can someone please guide me to a solution? Thanks in advance.
