Re: Can't send emails



Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no additional protection and even Symantec says it's not necessary:

<paste>
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have the most recent virus definitions.

Since I installed the latest security updates from Microsoft pertaining to
Outlook Express, I can't send out emails.

Using XP w/SP2.

- Did a telnet check and it was okay.
- Sent out emails from another computer (ME) using same email accounts and
that was okay.

The error message I get is:

An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'test', Account: 'ws4u Support',
Server: 'mail.emailbox10.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800CCC0B

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,
Craig
