DNS
server, or has been registered so recently that it's not reachable from all
parts of
the internet yet. That makes the address unreachable.

Looks like you have an extra "radon" in there....

Do you get a different error message?

According to this
http://www.charter.com/Visitors/Supp...ArticleID=1241
you can use mail.charter.net for both POP & SMTP server names

I am getting the same security error - I can go to my old PC with XP on it
and send all day long no problem but not with Vista on my new PC. How do you
turn off the authentication setting ? This is insane, email is very basic and
works every where except with Vista.

Suggestions?
Thanks

I am sure if I send to others the same error will occur. I have read the
replies from the posts and tried all that was suggested, check the box, not
check the box and on and on.

I would as that Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM please respond. He seems to
know what he is talking about.

Does MS realize they have a problem here?
Thanks
