An unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800C0148

It's the Outgoing Mail Server in your e-mail account properties. Did you set
everything up exactly as specified by your ISP or e-mail provider? If not,
that's why you're getting the message. It would be best to contact them with
this, as nobody here knows anything about who your e-mail provider is or
what their SMTP server requires,

SMTP would be your outgoing mail server, which should not be on PORT 0.

Check your outgoing mail server settings in Vista...and perhaps contact
your ISP.

I contacted gateway and they couldnt answr, called my ISP and they checked
out my computer and everything is correct so there is no answer so I am bring
the computer back to the geek squad.

Make sure your antivirus program is NOT configured to scan email.

Each antivirus program is different. Didn't you get a manual with
yours? Even without a manual there should be a Help button.
Search the help index for topics on email.

Why would this error show up now and not right away? I've had my laptop for
over a month now.

OK, so who is going to answer this question since the same thing just

Always include a complete error message when asking for help.
If your error message has "Port: 0" in it, most likely your antivirus program
is corrupting your email accounts. Read this:

Bottom line, if you are using McAfee or Norton antivirus, uninstall,
and get a better antivirus program.
