The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test outbox', Account:
'mail.ableornaments.com', Server: 'mail.ableornaments.com', Protocol: SMTP,
Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
can you walk me through the solution for this error?
Please.
 
Ableornaments.com 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.
 
i don't have my own isp it's my landlords i am on a laptop on the lan how
can i make this work since if i put in his mail.telus.net i assume it will
spit me out as not being him am i wrong
 
It should work just fine. Many SMTP servers don't require a login
(authentication) as long as your network address (IP) belongs to
their network. If you run into an authentication problem when sending,
let us know, and post a copy of the error message.
