Hi - I'm new to PlusNet and I wonder if anyone can help. I have searched for help but have found nothing specific to my needs. Firstly - if I have 2 mailboxes and I want to set up Outlook to receive both - what settings do I put in under the account settings as the username is it "username+name" or is it just "username"?
Secondly - when I try to send an email from the PlusNet account I get the following message "503 valid RCPT command must precede DATA". When I try to send an email to the PN accounts I get the following message "Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:
name@username.plus.com
Technical details of permanent failure:
DNS Error: DNS server returned answer with no data
I can send emails from both webmail accounts with no problem at all but I can't send anything to the accounts.
Sorry for rambling and I hope this all makes sense. Any help appreciated.

Rather then going through the settings in detail can you have a look here https://www.plus.net/support/email/setup/outlook.shtml and then come back if it doesn't help
With respect to the mailbox names they are in the form username+mailboxname - for example oldjim+jim is for a username "oldjim" and mailbox name "jim"
No these aren't my actual details

it also depends on how long you have been new, it takes a while to set up the inboxes, a couple of days

I would start by reading through Plusnets Help assistant on email settings for Outlook here
Edit: Oops you were quicker than me Jim!
That's Ok, there's plenty of ramblers on here
