can not send email

[Nick Y]

All of the sudden....I have been using windows mail for years, have not
changed any advanced features..
I can receive but sending an email (especially with an attachment) it
freezes. Overall, Windows mail seems real slow..
*One more, any attachment, seemd to freeze...

I noticed this on June 23 (evening, eastern time)
I noticed similar posts, with same issue...
Is this my issue or Microsoft issue..

Again, no advanced features (check or uncheck has been changed)

Which antivirus are you running? Some of them cause problems with
Windows Mail over time.
Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for
reasons explained here:

If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem,
do a trial uninstall of your antivirus. If no improvement, you can
always reinstall it. Instead of uninstalling your antivirus, consider
upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to
suffering bad effects from overly aggressive antivirus programs.
