the error is:

secure(SSL):no, socket erro:10060,ERROR Number:OX800ccc0E

I don't know, but I'll bet the server should be smtp.east.cox.net - also
check that they want him to use port 25 and whether or not the server
requires authentication.

He has the outgoing server name wrong.
It should be smtp.east.cox.net instead of smtp.east.net.

yourself by including a verbatim copy of the error. If only
