Hi All,

I am running Windows XP SP1 with Office XP SP 3.

I recently changed ISP's and now have a problem with Outlook sending emails.
Previously I was not having any problems. Outlook reports that the
connection to the SMTP server times out. Outlook will recieve emails
correctly.

When I created the account in Outlook it appeared to function correctly as I
didn't get any errors under "Test Account Settings". I also created an email
account in Outlook Express and that functions correctly. The account is a
pop account.

I did have AVG7 anti-virus software which I have removed and it didn't make
any difference.

It does seem that Outlook is the culprit but I haven't a clue what to try
next.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Robert

Are you properly authenticating to the new outgoing server? Does your mail
address's domain match the domain of your new ISP?
