When trying to send email I keep getting error code 0x800ccc0e from Outlook.
I'm using windows 2000 with Outlook 200 and have determined that port 110
must be blocked, this PC does not have a fire wall and the other three PC's
connected to the same router all work fine so what on this PC could be
blocking Port 110. How can I determine what's blocking this port?
 
Have you tried:

1) Telnetting to your.mailserver.com on port 110?
2) Creating a new Outlook profile to test?
 
I've deleted and re-setup the users account server times now, I've also
tried it in both Outlook and Outlook Express, I also believe that I've tried
to telnet but wasn't able to get a connection. I'm starting to wonder if I
need to re-install office altogether?
 
Try to telnet - if you can't, it isn't a mail client problem, it's
networking/name resolution/whatnot.
