1) For your sending error, see if one of these apply:

(Unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP Port: 0
Secure: No [SSL] Error: 0x800c0131)
http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/problems/errors.htm#foldersdbx
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=233264

OLEXP: ErrMsg The Message Could Not Be Sent An Error Has Occurred
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=179503
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=177884
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=190296

2) For the receiving problem, look in Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, General and make
sure that the Include this account in Send and Receive is checked.
