Trying to send mail...why would it display under 'tasks' that it was trying
to use my pop address to send instead of my smtp address? Trying to get
Windows Mail to work correctly is becoming very frustrating...it should be
easier than it is showing itself to be. Latest message trying to send mail:
The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Solsuite Download
Link', Account: 'pop.east.cox.net', Server: 'smtp.east.cox.net', Protocol:
SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number:
0x800CCC0E.
After verifying my pop and smtp addresses, why would I still be getting
the same error? Could it possibly not like Port 25? I ran into that
condition once while configuring Incredimail on another system. Sure could
use a resolution so that I can get productive again with my required email
tasks. thank you

Did you post that message through your ISP?
Because it looks like it was posted from a AT&T WorldNet account
rather than Cox.net.
As you may know, you can only use the SMTP server belonging to
the provider whose connectivity you are using at that moment.
This policy is known as a port 25 block.

If you are indeed sending from the Cox.net network, then the only
other possibility is something in your firewall or antivirus program
is causing the sending block.

Incidentally, it's not using your POP address to send. The
account name 'pop.east.cox.net' is just a handle, and can easily
be changed without affecting anything.

Gary, I think I'm going to be embarassed...When I am at my p/t job, I plug my
internet connection directly into THEIR broadband network(modem). I think
THEIR account is AT&T Worldnet. The site is a hotel. So, after I finish
eating Crow, I guess that means I just can't use Windows Mail while connected
to THEIR network, but should work with my wireless configuration at home or
with a Cox connection.
Red-in-the-face !

As far as I know, Cox is one of the few large ISPs who does not
accommodate mobile customers by offering SMTP access on
an alternate (non-25) port.
Your only workaround would be to get a free Gmail account
and use that for your away-from-home sending chores.

Get a Gmail account and you can POP piggy-back on any internet connection.

Thanks Gary. I'm going to find a GMail account.
