Can't send mail...

[Stacey]

Okay, I am not running Vista, I still have Windows XP Home. Norton
security, GoDaddy email and Verizon internet. (Actually we still have
Comcast also, apparently, but it was supposed to be cut off 10 days
ago...but that is a whole other story...) Anyway, I am having the
same problem with Outlook Express. This is the error message I get:

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible
causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long
period of inactivity. Account: 'pop.secureserver.net', Server:
'smtpout.secureserver.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 80, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

I have gotten this message for a week now. FRUSTRATING!!!!

Any ideas?

Oh, sorry for the blank post earlier...

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no protection not provided by the regular
resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail and
Outlook Express and should be uninstalled. The latest version of Trend's
anti-virus seems to be causing problems too.

SMTP connections seldom use port 80. Make sure you have both of these
right.

Port 80 is correct; smtpout.secureserver.net is one of the few exceptions.
