I am using Outlook 2003.
Account settings are correct and test message sends OK and I get a reply
back. In outlook itself any message I type will not send. It always says'
connection to server was interrupted'.
All settings have been checked including router, firewall, antivirus and
spysweeper. I have now replaced 2003 with outlook 2007. Same proble. If I use
Thunderbird all is OK. what is wrong?? Can anybody help please?
Thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your help but emails will still not leave my outbox.
I have runn the PST scan and also CHKDSK and looked at the log file I
created. I cannot see anything that appears to be a return error.
The strange thing is that Outlook will send an Account test message OK so
all be appears to be working properly. Any mail in the outbox gets a 'server
interruption error 0x800cc0f'. My IP says there is nothing wrong with the
connection. I have disabled the Firewall, AV and Spysweper. The problem is
still there even when I upgraded Outlook 2003 to 2007.
Frustrating isn't it!

What do youhave your send/receive interval set for? It should be nothing less than 10 minutes. I personally use 30 minutes.

|| Check the log file for why the error is being returned.
||
|| To clean up your PC do a chkdsk / f and reboot. Then do a scanpst:

The first thing to do is to uninstall the AV program and reinstall it
without the mail scanning feature. See that happens then.
