Cannot Send .exe .zip or .jpg attachments

[rockoyster]

N.B. This is a problem related to sending attachments
with OE *NOT* a problem with receiving them.

I have a Win XP machine with a Creatix v.9x DSP modem and
IE6/OE6 SP1 allround.

I am unable to send emails with attchments of
form .exe, .zip, or .jpg (these are the only binaries
I've tried so far).

I have no problem sending .doc or .exe attachments of any
size.

The error message I get from OE when sending
email with .exe, .zip, or .jpg attachment is ...........

Your SMTP server has not responded in 60 seconds. Would
u
like to wait another 60 seconds for the server to respond?

If I press "wait" button, it will wait for another 60
seconds and do nothing still, but if I press "stop" button
another error message pop up:

A time-out occurred while communicating with the server.
Subject 'dafdfsd', Account: 'mail.iinet.net.au',
Server: 'mail.m.iinet.net.au', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

I have tried extending the tim-out period.
I am aware of the OE Virus Checking featre and have set
that option correctly.
I have tried turning off the Win XP firewall.
I have tried turning off mail scanning in AVG virus
checker
I have tried the S12=50 modem init string referred to in
MS knowledgebase article regardig problem of sending .jpg
file.
I have tried sending with completely different email
account from same machine.

Have also tried .....the following .....

Where I work the firewall prevents us sending .exe files as attachments.
A workaround solution is to zip the file then send that as attachment.
It may or may not wotk for you but could be worth a try.

Doh! Apologies, just re-read the subject. You can't send zips either so my
suggestion won't be of much use to you!

Suggestion: Instead of using ZIP, try WinRAR with .RAR extension
