Hi, I have created an email address. However, whatever I try, the smtp settings for outgoing mail in outlook just are being rejected all the time.
I always get that mess
Hi Jan
I've attached the settings I use and both work Outgoing and Incoming email as the Test Settings came back with both green ticks.
See screenshots/images below.
Let me know if you need further help.
Regards
Edu
Thank you again. I try with Gmail which gives me an error with outgoing mail password. I made multiple addresses but the password is the same and the error doesn't disappear.
Do you have an idea where I can go to figure this?
Thank you so much.
Hi Jan,
Did you figure out how to do this ? I have a similar problem.
I have a WA @domain forward to my personal email. Now I want to have outgoing mail with that same @domain from Outlook (good old hotmail account). It is always giving me an error and I cannot figure it out ... I tried all the combinations and verified everything. I just need to set up a new outgoing email added to my hotmail...
If anyone knows thanks in advance !!
Hi Lounina,
Unfortunately no. I did not find a solution so far. There seems to be a flaw in the system at Wealthy affiliate resulting to be unable to setup the outgoing mail server. The only thing I am considering to do is to move my current website (which is already on a domain of myself) to my hosting provider, create my email addresses over there and completely manage the site/ email accounts outside of WA
Hi Jan
That's unfortunate... I guess i will have to use their webmail which is not my favorite option. I'll see again with support perhaps.
Thanks for your answer
Hi Jan - I am confused as to what you are trying to do. These are my assumptions:
You have a WA website set up and
1. You have created an e-mail that FORWARDS OUT
2. Where? Out of WA e-mail to your OUTLOOK e-mail account
3. You are now attempting to send an e-mail FROM OUTLOOK back IN to WA e-mail, correct ?
Hi Monique,
Thank you for your reply. It's much appreciated.
I have setup a website indeed using one of my own domains.
Next to that I have simpy created an emailadress linked to my domain.
Just as everywhere else WA provides settings for those who wish to configure their email for use with their own email clients (e.g. Outlook)
There are always two kind of servers:
One for incoming mail
One for outgoing mail.
Both have to be setup.
The problem I face is related to the latter. The outgoing server uses the SMTP protocol but I cannot make it work. Even not while I use the exact settings provide by WA.
So, what does this all mean?
Suppose you would sent me an email to my created email address, that would work fine.
Suppose however I would like to reply to your mail, the mail never would be sent for it cannot connect to the OUTgoing server.
In other words: I can receive mail but simply not sent.

I may be over-simplifying this, but I don't think it's that complicated. I am going to try it first before I continue . . . I'll be back. HOLD ON
Jan, it's a plugin. Just go to your website and click on the Plugin, then add Plugin setting. Search for Outlook e-mail SMTP and you'll see it. The Plugin integrates Outgoing e-mail with the website's incoming e-mail forwards from WA.
Just make sure the Plugin is compatible with your theme!
Hi Monique,
How exactly would be the name of that plugin? Can'f find anything which would relate to the issue I am having.
It's strange..... I am in the IT business and things like this are my daily job..... never had any issue with these kind of things. I must be overlooking something...
Hi Jan - I would just go to your site's Plugin SEARCH BAR and type in SMTP. They should pop up.

Smtp settings outlook outgoing email?
Hi, I have created an email address. However, whatever I try, the smtp settings for outgoing mail in outlook just are being rejected all the time.
I always get that mess
The inbound and outbound info (servers, ports and passwords0 differ.
Grab the relevant info by going to Websites>SiteManager then click on SiteEmail up top. Click on SMTP Settings for the inbound and outbound server info. Use port 143 for inbound and 587 for outbound....that should do the trick.

Hi dear friends,
As the title suggests, who has used adf.ly as an advertising tool and has gained real good results with this? Or more in general, what are your experience
Hi Jan,
Adfly, or any company like it that sends traffic for a price is a scam. Adfly is not connecting you with REAL people who are interested in what you have to offer. The leads are in many cases BOTS (computers), and if there are any real people they are completely untargeted. Further more, companies like adfly pay people to register to free programs for pennies, these are NOT real leads.
Stay well clear of companies like Adfly because you will never earn anything from them.
Another company like it is Clixsense, which is equally a waste of money as Adfly.

Hi Carson,
I was already afraid of that. Thank you for your reply. It helps. I will not spend a single penny anymore on that site.
BIG UP THE RESPECT TO CARSON for unveiling the likes of adfly. I apologise for SHOUTING (digitally anyways) but it was the best way to grab everybody's attention on this. I was JUST today beginning to form a habit of shortening my links with adfly. I've so far only put two adfly links into one blog - I can easily remedy that! I am just gonna go ahead and ahermmm, annihilate those pesky little adfly links using my super dooper adfly swatting hotkey (delete key to most of us).
I am so happy that I got to know that I have to nip that in the bud, .i.e stop it from growing as soon as it rears its ugly head.! Great stuff, glad I went to the search box at the top of the WA page and that I typed in "Adfly" - it just shows that there are answers everywhere on Wealthy Affiliate if you look deeply enough and type in the right keywords.
Gonna start making more use of that feature in the future, I am!
I am wondering, "Hmmm, I wonder whether I should be shortening these links anyways?"
And then wondering (if it turns out to be okay AND a good thing to shorten links) What link shortening service/app/website WOULD be better than the adfly one?
I've heard of TinyUrl - Yay or Nay folks?
Thanks,
Jimbo!
So are there any methods besides just putting out content on my site and getting higher ranks in google to generate more traffic? Any traffic generating programs or such that are legit?
Wish I could help but I can not. Hopefully someone with experience with adfly will chime in. I am curious to see the answers also.

Hi,
I am a little stuck in creating my menus on my site ( http://roadmaptowealth
Hi Jan, I am not sure what theme you are working with. With mine (similar to yours maybe the same?) I create Pages, anything I want under a page, I click the Main page as a Parent Page - After you write your sub-page on the right hand side there is a list. Click on Parent Page, and the sub page will be listed on the drop down menu.
For Posts: Categories: You have to set that up separately, Under Posts Categories. They should appear on the right side menu.
Pages Categories will appear at the top of your Website.
Posts Categories will appear on the right side of your Website.
I hope this helps you.
If not look up Tommy Dillard.
Hi Dynamite8,
Thank you very much for your reply. This evening I will look at your suggestions and play a little with the settings. If I understand you correctly: if you have created a page and want a dropdown menu for that page you will choose sub-pages. So you will not link a category to that page but another page then. Correct?
Post your video to YouTube and just put the link in your message. It should work and if it doesn't we can paste the link into YouTube when we log in to UT.
I have never tried to paste a UTube link in this discussion so can not help there. Re menus. you can drag each menu item to the possition you want it. To make sub menus drag the menu item to the parent and drag it a little to the right. It will position under the parent.
I have edited my post. Now the link should work, but also I have new problem. It seems I cannot paste a YouTube link here in my question???
For what it's worth, is it possible that posting a YouTube link in here goes against the guidelines and rules of WA?
I am not able to access this video to offer assistance. I also cannot access your website. Sorry!
The link doesn't work because there is a ) character in part of the domain name. Jan should be able to edit it and put a space between the .org and ) and all will be fine again.
I have added a space now. Link should work, only now I have discovered that I cannot paste a YouTube link in here
