Hi All thanks in adavnce,
My MS Outlook 2003 will receive but can't send e-mails. when it tries do do a send/receive it says it's sending message 1 of 1 but there is none there. I've already tried disabling outgoing e-mail scanning in case Norton was messing with it and I'm pretty sure that all my account settings are OK. I'm stumped now thats the limit of my knowledge.

Is this pukka Outlook or Outlook express?

Has this ever worked or are you still trying to set it up?

What recent changes have you made (if any)?

Do you have all the documentation sent to you by your ISP with regards to email?

Let us know and we can probably help.

Outgoing Mail Server.

My server requires authentication.

Is this box ticked

That's about all I know. I had this exact issue and found out this was what was wrong.

Cheers Big Ape but it ain't that; Pukka Outlook 2003, worked for ages then stopped - no changes made can receive e-mails but not send it looks like the server is timing out whilst outlook is trying to send a message that I can't see (or doesn't actually exist).

Try the TechNet Forums on MS.com. This thread may help too.

I'd be inclined to check if it's a client or server issue - send an email manually via SMTP.
Some straight forward instructions at:

Many Thanks, nothing working so far - phone call to ISP (orange) next and then it's a re-install of Office for me.

The mrs had that problem a few months ago
It sorted itself out after a couple of days, so I guess it's something to do with your ISP having a problem

try runing this in Start->Run

telnet smtp.orangehome.co.uk 25

If the window opens up then closes then there is a problem, but it should open up then the top line will say somthing about freeserve (orange uses the freeserve/wanado platform).

The orange smtp server has changed from smtp.orange.net to smtp.orangehome.co.uk.

I agree with TSM, attempt to simulate a SMTP session using the telnet port 25 to your service provider.

Now then. When things started failing on my smtp I found it was the sneaky gits at McAffee to blame. their virusscan was blocking tcp port 25
