This is the error meseage i'm getting: Subject 'Fw: Envìo fotos', Account:
'pop.west.cox.net', Server: 'smtp.west.cox.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

I'm trying to send some e-mail with pic's attached, but it won't work. All
it does is send it to the Outbox. It says that the server did not respond
within 60 seconds. Can someone help me please?
 
By any chance, are you sending from a laptop while away from home?

If that is not the case, it could be interference from your antivirus.
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or
Norton security programs. Those will need to be
uninstalled, not just disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see

I am having the same trouble with attachments. I have Trend Micro AntiVirus
and Spy Sweeper on a 5 day old computer with Vista. Does anyone know how I
can attach a large (4000 KB) pdf?
 
Uninstall both Trend and SpySweeper, if they are setup to scan your email,
then do a custom re-install of both and do not install any email scanning
features whatsoever. A 4000 KB file has a very good chance of exceeding
your ISP's maximum size limit (almost all ISPs impose a maximum size for
email messages), you should check with them to see if it does. If your ISP
has a size limit and you exceed it, your email dies at the server entrance.
