Cannot send emails

[Davo]

I just set up windows mail and am unable to send emails. The server is
mail.amcatusa.com. This is the error message I get.

-- The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test', Account:
'mail.amcatusa.com', Server: 'mail.amcatusa.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

However I can receive email.

Amcatusa is not your ISP. As such, your home ISP will block
your use of any port 25 SMTP server other than their own.
For an explanation of this policy, see
http://www.postcastserver.com/help/Port_25_Blocking.aspx

To send from home, you will have to substitute your home ISP's
SMTP server. If you need help with that, let us know who your
home ISP is.
