0x8004210B error

[Guest]

Outlook has been working fine for quite a while and all of a sudden today it
will get this error when sending. Messages will just sit in the Outbox. I
can recieve email and if I go to the email account settings and do the "Test
Account Settings", I get the email... but not if its sent from Outlook.
Fustrated to say the least! WinXP Pro & Outlook 2003

Your choice. Note, though, that "all the posts" are a pretty small
percentage of the millions and millions of people that use Outlook, and
many of them are misconfigurations or problems with their ISPs, not with
Outlook...

You never did say what your error message was, though...

Seeing how it's working now I can't get the error but it was somthing about
time out trying to connect and to contact you Admistrator or ISP. I saw a
couple of notes with this exact same error and suggestions were to kill
AntiVirus software and such... tried that with no results...

If you have Norton anti-virus, anecdotal evidence indicates that you need
to uninstall it, reboot, then reinstall Norton without the mail scanning
options in order to truely disable it.
