Email help.

[SSICK]

Hi,

Im currently in a hotel in New Zealand using the rooms WIFI and need to send some important emails off. However, when i hit the send/recieve icon it says that this server does not support secure connections. Any ideas? I need these emails sent off asap.

Im working off my Macbook Pro using Outlook.

Cheers
Tom.

Use your phone's internet connection as your internet instead of the wifi?

Im only here for 12 days so just going off WIFI and not getting a phone service.

Go down to the Lobby and have a word with them, did this in Chiang Mai last year when I had to send some emails, hooked laptop straight up to their Ethernet cable and no probs. I had timing out issues though, worth a try.

Did what Bret_J said while overseas and worked each time. Did the drop off chocolates as a thanks incase I needed something else again.

ISP provided email (POP)?

It will probably be the outgoing server you have set. eg: if you have it set to mail.iinet.net.au, it will only work on iinet connections.

You'll need to set the outgoing server to whatever the hotel is running as their service provider.

Running a speedtest should indicate what ISP you're on. Google for that ISPs SMTP settings and set the outgoing server in Outlook as required.



Or it could be a limitation of their wireless there, blocking outbound SMTP.

What mail type is it.. if is the the likes of a ISP e-mail they should have a web based version you should be able to use
