Re: socket error 10053

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

Nope, we used TrendMicro, and I have removed it from my PC just to monitor
the error. Problem still remains.

There is a possibility the problem may be within our firewall (a WatchGuard
Firebox), and I'm in contact with techsupport for solution. So far, there
is no resolution from them yet.

Hi
Below is an error that I get sometimes when "sending" email. Some
internet advices mentioned that it might have to do with virus software.
So not only I disabled virus software, I uninstalled it completely, but
the error still occurred. So, for my case, virus software didn't seem to
be the cause. The strange thing is that the error did not happen every
time I sent email. It happened sporadically throughout the day and always
at the moment I sent a message. When it happened, all I needed to do was
to click Send/Recv button again and the message got sent ok.

I also tried to use port 5190 instead of the standard port 25 in account
properties, but that didn't help either.

Please help solve this problem.
Thank you
Steve
