549448 2007-05-13 09:17:00 I use OE. I had this problem 2 years ago however it was with a different isp so Im not sure what to do.

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'heinz57', Server: 'localhost', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

???? :yuck:

549449 2007-05-13 09:30:00 that localhost looks to me like the problem, from memory your antivirus scanner has failed.

Try this:
Go to Tools | Accounts |Mail
Highlight your email account, and then click on properties
Click on servers
Take out the "localhost" and type in your ISP server (somthing like pop3.xtra.co.nz)
Click apply and ok out of there then try email again.

Of course what will /may happen is your AV may change again so you might have to consider turning this feature off your AV programme.

549450 2007-05-13 09:36:00 I thought it would be the localhost, however, Im having the mail redirected from our website, and I guess its sending out through the website.
I set it up to OE through the website.
We dont use xtra, our ISP is NATCOM, with no email supplied.

So should I delete the accounts in OE .. go to our site and redirect them again?

549451 2007-05-13 09:36:00 Why does the AV do this ? Lovelee (6586)
549452 2007-05-13 10:05:00 Look here (support.microsoft.com)

I take it you've changed the info in OE (the account info), since you moved ISP's?
