Sending E-Mail

I am signed up to a broad band server, but when I try to send an e-mail it
tries to connect me to a dial-up service, and then nothing connects. (I
don't have a dial-up service!!)
When I go to my accounts it shows itself on Directory Service with the word
NULL underneath it.
I do receive my e-mails, and I can repond to their messages, but to create a
new message on my own and send it via my windows mail is virtually
impossible. What Can I do to fix this ongoing dilema??

Re: Sending E-Mail

Check your browser's internet connection settings. Disable the
dial-a-connection option.
If you are using your isp software you may also have to configure that
properly.
