Re: Outlook Express working, however Microsoft Outlook not

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

If the firewall is installed on your PC, it is possible for it to open or block ports
based on the program trying to use the port. If the firewall is external to your PC, I
don't believe that it has access to the name of the program trying to use the port.
