Im using Winroute 4.1.25 as my proxy software running on Win2000 Server connected to the internet via DSL.
My question is:
1. how do i download mail from my isp's smtp & pop(mozcom.com) server using e.g. outlook express?
2. what settings should i change or enable in my (proxy)winroute software & outlook express?
i get this error:
The host 'mozcom.com' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'mozcom.com', Server: 'mozcom.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D
btw, i could download mails if i connect directly to my isp via dial-up or dsl. my problem is on my workstation on my private LAN. i know its in my proxy server settings(winroute) but i dont know which.
Please help.
Thanks!
 
Hello,

I have the same problem. Did you find any solution that could help me PLEASE??

Thank you in advance,

If you have setup winroute to block all outgoing and incoming traffic and to only allow traffic thru winroute's proxy server, then you can't get or send mail thru either pop3 or smtp, because ports 25 and 119 are blocked... you need to open up port 119 and 25 for outgoing traffic to allow pop3 and smtp mail transfers. Plus you need to remove ports 25 and 119 from then incoming traffic filter, But do not port-map them.
