Outlook 2007 won't send mail

[Guest]

I have Vista Home Premium, and although I have a couple of ongoing problems
with Vista, Outlook has generally behaved itself until today. I can receive
email but can't send. Items go from the outbox into Sent Mail but never reach
the recipient, including test emails which I've sent to myself that never
arrive.

Any ideas what to check?

Thanks

I have a similar problem - Are you with Tiscali - I am?
They tell me that they have been hit by Spammers and this is causing emails
not to reach recipients.

Do you have to keep inputting your password on a send/receive? - I do and as
yet Tiscali have not replied to that bit!

Same problem with Outlook 2007 on my computer. Have tried the steps on
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/286106#top, but without success. Hope someone
can sort this out. It would be much appreciated. Foss

If the message moves to Sent Items, then the problem is on your ISP's
server.

You're right, it is an ISP problem. Tiscali have been used by spammers
allegedly, so other ISPs are blocking mail from Tiscali accounts. Hopefully
will be sorted in the next few days.

Thanks
