This is an outgoing mail failure, do you see this error frequently?
If this error occurred on-time, you may ignore it, if you cannot
send/retrieve e-mail your setting need to be re-established.

Your default outgoing SMTP Port should be 25, not "0".
Call your ISP and request assistance in resetting your Outlook
Express mail settings. All Internet Service Providers give support
on this.
