Cannot send mail

Despite receiving mail ok, I have to exit Win Mail to send messages.
Otherwise they hold in the outbox. Some have got through. I run NAV. I
believe send receive options are set correctly. Any ideas?

Uninstall NAV and install a compatible, free, product
such as Avast with the email scanning component
omitted during the install process ideally.

You may need to delete and recreate your email
account within WM.
 
Everything was fine at first with my new Vista system then for no apparent
reason, I cannot send e mails from Windows Mail although I can receive them.
I have tried, as have most of the people on here, everything I can think of
to rectify this but no luck.
There is also a message that I tried to send stuck in my outbox that refuses
to budge and displays an error message whenever I try to move it or delete it.
Everyone I speak to says that Vista is a washout and I wish I had stuck to
my old Millenium Edition. Mugs like me have paid good money for a load of
rubbish and Windows couldn't give two hoots.
By the amount of posts on here with similar problems I can see there is
probably no solution. Why should we spend hours trying to fix the results of
Windows' incompetence?
In the unlikely event of anyone having a solution to this problem - please
help !
 
You can fix the problem with the stuck email in the Outbox
by using the Clear Outbox feature of the WMUtil program:

Be sure to read and follow the directions on the download page.

There are several issues in your post, some of which
I won't dignify by responding to.

First. Read... to find out why your post
is slovenly and incompetent. Piggy backing issues helps no one.

All that says is that you know a disproportionate number of imbeciles.
Mugs like me

You can't surely be that thick so you must be a liar.

You've gone a long way to alienating potential help with your
ill informed, pathetic ranting.

But...

You are most likely a victim of incompatible antivirus software
that has been fostered upon you by the real culprits - PC vendors
and exacerbated by your own bone idle incompetence.

Get rid of your incompatible AV software, uninstall entirely,
and use a free compatible alternative such as Avast
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Disable email scanning or better yet omit it during the install
processes http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

At this point you should delete and recreate your email
account within Windows Mail to remove corruptions.

Next, use this utility http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/Default.aspx
to remove the message stuck in your outbox.
Unfortunately, you've a poor track record, you'll have to read and
follow all the instructions for the required functionality to be
available.

I am neither thick nor a liar. You should learn some manners really, but you
are probably to pompous for anyone to be able teach you.
If you can't reply to a post in a manner which is not insulting to other
participants my advice is to keep quiet.
You are obviously a nasty piece of work. Try eating more fibre.
 
I seem to have a similar problem sending some, but not all, emails. I get:

The rejected e-mail address was ____________________. Subject 'Maureen
Gilbert's Programme', Account: 'mail1.eircom.net', Server:
'mail1.eircom.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 sorry, that domain
isn't in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,
Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79.

Is this the same problem that everyone else seems to have with Norton? Is
Norton really that incompatible with Vista?

Many thanks for any help offered!
Cheers, Matthew

Your mail provider is refusing to send to anyone on that domain (the part
after the '@').
 
Thanks,

Is there anything I can do about it? It seems to not want to send many
emails at all!

Thanks,

Matthew

LOL
I can live with you not being able to send emails.
 
Try the fix provided here:

Messages may be stuck in the Outbox when you use Windows Mail on a computer
that is running Windows Vista
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941090

Download and install the update appropriate for your operating system:

Windows Vista, 32-bit versions:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=09F002D9-A140-42A8-99F5-A86F2B7E39F1

Or,

Windows Vista, 64-bit versions:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=09DABF39-1E37-46DD-91BC-BE5ABE3F39B7
 
That error message has no relationship to your antivirus, but that's
not to say that Norton won't cause a problem in the future.

When you got that error message, were you connected to the Internet
through eircom.net? If you were on a laptop away from home, that
would explain the problem.

Bless you ! Thank you very much for your help.
I received a reply about the problem from a half wit who was very rude. You
have restored my faith in human nature and fixed the problem.
Thanks again !!
