Hi I have a dial-up account with Tiscali and use a Tiscali email address in outlook express which works fine when I connect using my Tiscali Dial-Up Connection but I now I have BT broadband and I am able to receive mail for my tiscali email address in outlook express using broadband but I am unable to send mail. Does anyone know what the SMTP settings should be in the UK for my Tiscali email address using BT Broadband? Many thanks Danny123

Do you still have a Tiscali account? If you closed the Tiscali account when you opened the BT Broadband account will have lost the ability to send mail through their server.
If you still have a Tiscali account then check with Tiscali. They probaly have a different server for dial up and broadband.
BT have a facility to allow you to retrieve mail from another ISP when you migrate to them so you do not lose any mail. That only lasts for a month though until so you can tell all your contacts you now have a BT Broadband account.
You need to re-configure Outlook to use the BT Broadband server.
