I cant send email

[Guest]

I can recieve mail with no problems. Everytime I try to send mail I get this
error:

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Subject 'Do you crop my photos?', Account: 'imap.aol.com',
Server: 'smtp.aol.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 10053, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

Please help me!

Brooke,

I and several other people have had the same problem. Go to

www.oehelp.com/wmutil

and download Steve's utility to your desktop per Steve's instructions. Then
use the utility, after unzipping, and compact your e-mail and the problem
will go away. It did for me and hopefully will for you.

Good luck and let me know what happens.

It may be due to your antivirus program scanning the email. Try to turn it
off.

Wrong again. WMUtil won't help here.

You have the wrong settings for AOL outgoing, Check with AOL.

According to AOL's website, you should be using port 587
instead of port 25:
