Is there an error number associated with the timeout? Also, do you have
antivirus scanning yoru incoming and outgoing email? Disable that, it won't
compromise your security at all. Your real time scanner will catch whatever
t's updated for.
If you're failing even the test send, double-check your security settings
and authentication against what your ISP website dictates is required.
