Seems like a DNS problem or something? Webmail works fine, old Email account under same domain works fine, just not new account under any domain. Checked settings, software, tried alternative configs (different Pop servers, the IP instead of the name, etc). Uninstalled and reinstalled Outlook, deleted and recreated the Pop account both in Outlook and on the hosting company, still nothing. Checked settings a hundred times of course. The environment is a Windows 2003 Small business Server, the clients are all Win XP Pro running DHCP with DNS and DHCP running on the server. I’ve run all the Windows updates & virus protection scans. No other known problems exist.

Any other ideas??? thanks

Are you hosting the email account or is it hosted by an ISP?

It is hosted with Godaddy. I talked to several people there including one of their top dogs, and even he had no clue after trying a few things...
