I keep receiving this error when i try to set up my email. Can anyone help?

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Subject 'Re: Goals', Account: 'mail.fixitbuddy.com', Server:
'mail.fixitbuddy.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0F
 
That error will happen when you try to send, not when you are
setting up your email account.

The reason this error happens is because your ISP will not let
you use someone else's SMTP server. In the industry this is
known as a port 25 block. The Fixitbuddy.com server is hosted
on a different network than your ISP. The workaround for this
problem is to substitute your ISP's SMTP server for mail.fixitbuddy.com.

mail.fixitbuddy.com do not have smtp service (or at least not reachable
from here) you should try to set up your the name of your ISP's smtp server.

How to do it depends on what email provider you want to use. Many
people choose their internet provider as their email provider, since most
internet accounts also include an email account. Ask your email provider
for their instructions for setting up to use their email servers. If they
haven't written instructions for Windows Mail yet, their instructions for
Outlook Express should also work under Windows Mail as long as they
don't call for using the HTTP protocol. The instructions are usually found
somewhere on their web site. Or, you could tell us who your email
provider is and see if anyone here already knows where to find the
instructions.
