hi, new user with Vista, having problems sending some emails through windows
mail. this only happens on some addresses, but quite annoying all the same.
waht happens is McAfee scans and then disallows the mail to be sent, and in
the log, it asks for the address to be verified, but I have no idea as to how
to do that.. Someone out there, please help??

McAfee is like a noose around the neck of email software.
Sometimes the noose gets a bit too tight!
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or
Norton security programs. Those will need to be
uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, test
your email sending. If it still does not work, the account
has been corrupted by Norton. Delete the account, restart
Windows Mail, then recreate that account.

At your convenience, download and install a more compatible
antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see

Gary, as they say here in Ireland, you're a legend!! I successfully
uninstalled McAfeck, with much giving out!! installed AVG, and yes the
sending address was corrupted!!

Thank you for your feedback.
If only other users had a little more faith in the recommendations
of experienced troubleshooters!
