When I try to respond to an ad on craigslist I get the message"The host Internet Explorer could not be found. Please verify thatyou have entered the server name correctly." Therefore the email is not sent. I have Vista and I E 8

Hello, this forum is for server related questions please use the Vista forum instead, thank you for understanding: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsvistaBest regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

It seems that the settings of Windows Mail (such as SMTP or POP3) are not correct which causes the issue. But as Meinolf said, you should post the question to Windows Vista forum. You can post under "Networking, Email, and Getting Online" sub-forum.
