VBA CDO XP Firewall / Transport Failed Connect Server

[dig314]

This code works when the Firewall ( XP sp2 / Excel 2002 ) is OFF. It
will not run while the Firewall is turned on. The error message is:
The transport failed to connect to the server.
The error message occurs at the .Send line.

What Exceptions should I add to the Firewall ?

Thank you for your assistance.
