brambell Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Hi, I had to do a system restore on my computer. And this put every thing back to the factory setting. My O/S is Vista.Now,when I try and send an email with an attachement it tells me that there are errors. I have listed them here:The host 'SMTP' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly. Subject 'Emailing: 100_0599', Account: 'POP3', Server: 'SMTP', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D I had problems with both POP3 and SMTP. I think that I have sorted out the POP3 problem and now I need to sort out the SMTP problem.There was a problem with POP3 but not 100% sure if this problem has been sorted out. Does the information above tell this.Can anyone help me.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vino Rosso Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 You need to set your email provider's smtp server correctly, usually something like smtp.xxxxxxxxx.comAlso, it's possible that your email provider requires outgoing mail server authentication so try enabling that to see if it makes a difference.

brambell Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Can I first say that I'am new to computers.Not sure what you mean about email prog. My O/S is Vista. For the internet I have installed Mozilla Firefox. When I got the computereverything was set up for me.I can send emails with attchments when I'am on the internet. When I go into my "pictures" and try and send a pictuer,it ask's me what size I want to send,which I tell it,then I just tells me about those errors.Not sure if this helps you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hb_Kai Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 If you're trying to use a Windows Live account with Windows Mail or Outlook Express, Hotmail aren't enabling that anymore. Don't know why, but nothing is compatible for it because they have stopped it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
