Re: receiving But unable to send mail

So, if Ultravision was not supplying your connection to the Internet
at that moment, that would explain the error message.

This is the msg while on cable.

"The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Re: packages', Account: 'mail.ultravision.net', Server:
'mail.ultravision.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E"

I tried to send the same msg when I switched to ATT wireless, and it went thru the first time.
Thanks,

Being unable to send from a connection away from home is
quite normal. As a general rule, the owner of the SMTP server
must be the same as the one providing your Internet
connection at that moment. For more on this see
http://www.postcastserver.com/help/Port_25_Blocking.aspx

The available workarounds when sending away from home are as follows:

1. Use webmail for sending (via your browser).
2. Ask your home ISP if they have a port other than '25' for SMTP.
3. If you use the same away-from-home connection frequently, substitute the SMTP
server belonging to that connection. This is a bit tricky, but if you want to go that route,
I can provide more details.
4. If you frequently send from multiple locations, get a free Gmail account,
configure it for POP access, and use it for your sending chores.
Gmail uses port 465 for SMTP, which is not blocked like port 25 is.

As for sending taking several tries, is there an error message when it
doesn't go? If so, right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it
into a reply here.

Gary, I have almost the same problem. I can always receive, but most of the time, I have to try 4 or 5 times to send. It
finally works, however, I do Not have the box you mentioned checked.
Today, I experienced something different. I am at a resort and have access to a cable connection, and I could not send at all.
I could receive, tho. I then switched to my AT&T wireless connection and I could send after 3 tries. I still do not have the
box checked, although after I finish this, I will check it and see what happens,I just wanted to see what you had to say about
it.
I have Vista and Win mail.
Thanks for your help,
JS

Make sure you have send authentication enabled.
Go to Tools, Accounts, select that account, Properties, Servers.
The box for "My server requires authentication" must be checked.
