lose connection

every time i use out look exp to send mail i lose the internet connection after it sends. i have a gateway with windows. thanks for the help

 

What kind of connection do you have? It seems that when I used to be on dial-up there was a setting in OE to disconnect when finished.

Try Tools...> Options....>Connection and see what's checked there.

 

i use dial up. how do i do it ? thanks

 

At the top, you should see a row of words. The first word is File, the second word is Edit, etc. Go over and click on "Tools." A menu should drop down. Pick "Options" and then "Connections."

There should be some options there, and one of them should read something like "Disconnect After Sending Mail." If that box has a checkmark in it, uncheck it.

 

ok i unchecked the box that had a checkhang up after sending.. thanks indyattic and have a good night.. ken
