I use my isp's email server and i double checked that incoming and outgoing server addresses are correct but it doesnt seem to receive any email! i tested this by emailing to my personal isp email from hotmail and it didnt receive it. However sending out email from my personal isp email works. I used both Microsoft Outlook 2003 and normal outlook express and get the same problem. cant receive can only send!
I use XP, It stopped working when i disabled the welcome login screen when XP starts so it automatically logs on as administrator without going onto the logon screen. After I did this it resetted a lot of stuff including email software I lost all my emails when I did this dont even know how to get them back either. Anyway I set it up again but have this problem
 
I get the same problem with Office Outlook for some reason can never figure out how to set it up!
I solve the problem by using Outlook Express instead of the Office version. Mind you it is not a real conclusion to the problem it just saves the time and energy!
