    How on earth are you using Outlook Express on Windows 7. I use Outlook Express 6.0 on my WinXP and it works great but they don't do Outlook Express for Vista/Win7/Win8.

    I tried copying the folder over and registering the dll's but when run its says something like Outlook Express is not made for this operating system.

    I do have Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 (I know its old but I hate the newer Office with stupid pictures) on my laptop and that works. I really wish Outlook Express was available.

    They recommend Windows Live for emails.

    The strange thing is I also have Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 on WinXP but I don't use it. I only use it to import emails and contacts then save them as pst files then copy these over to my laptop.

    I have been using win 7 home premium 64 bit for past 2 1/2 years alongwith office 2010, the outlook express opens as windows mail 2011. I am able to send msgs but can not receive them. The error that appears is quoted in the last post. I even tried to download msgs thru outlook 2010 there too was unable to download.

    Make sure the account is configured correctly

    http://mail.bsnl.in/mailbsnlfaq/inde...l=en-US&v=bsnl
    Manually configure the account, select POP3 as the protocol

    Display name: Enter your name
    Email address: Enter your full email address (username@bsnl.in)

    Servers
    Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP): mail.bsnl.in
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtp.bsnl.in
    Make sure My server requires authentication has a check in the box
    choose Use same settings as my incoming mail server

    Account name: Enter your full email address (username@bsnl.in)
    Password: Enter your email password

    Incoming Server (POP3), the port number should be set to 110
    Outgoing Server (SMTP), the port number should be set to 25

    Well you using the wrong terminology Outlook Express isn't Outlook as I've stated.

    mahipat,

    I might have posted the wrong configuration. I'm not familiar with BSNL - it appears that Sancharnet is a separate service.

    According to the information I just found, the servers and eMail address would need to be changed

    Know your incoming mail server - I think this is based on your location.

    Your New Incoming (POP3) Mail Server will be:
    nmma.sancharnet.in
    -- or --
    nmma.bsnl.in

    wmma.sancharnet.in
    -- or --
    wmma.bsnl.in

    smma.sancharnet.in
    -- or--
    smma.bsnl.in

    Know your outgoing mail server

    Your New Outgoing (SMTP) Mail Server will be:
    nmra.sancharnet.in
    -- or--
    nmra.bsnl.in

    smra.sancharnet.in
    -- or --
    smra.sancharnet.in

    I used nmma.bsnl.in in my examples, since that's what you posted in post# 1.
    Also note that the SMTP server is different from the POP3 server - staying with the nm locale, I used nmra.bsnl.in for the SMTP server.

    The website is a bit confusing due to the localized server names - it is not consistent and uses nm as the POP3 and sm as the SMTP. Of course I could have it all wrong

    Email address: Enter your full email address (username@nmma.bsnl.in)

    Servers
    Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP): nmma.bsnl.in
    Outgoing mail (SMTP): nmra.bsnl.in
    Make sure My server requires authentication has a check in the box
    choose Use same settings as my incoming mail server

    Account name: Enter your full email address (username@nmma.bsnl.in)
