The user is not using Norton
We put AVG on there and we are using the windows firewall.
I disabled AVG and the windows firewall and still it doesn't want to send
the email in the outbox.
I had logged into the computer using logmein and tried to telnet.
But it seems Vista doesn't have telnet anymore.
I turned off "show hidden files" and searched for
telnet, but it didn't find anything.
Yes, the user is using a different ISP when trying to log into our email
provider.
He will try to this afternoon to see if he can send emails from the other
office.
I'll find out about the polling.
Thanks for the advice.

Are you running both the Norton firewall and Windows firewall? Disable
one.
Make sure Outlook.exe is added to allow outgoing access.
Also, have you updated Norton recently? Check their website for any
possible
issues.
Are you trying to connect to a server other than your ISP's? The
smtp mail server must and has to be your ISP's outgoing mail
server's name.
Can you telnet to port 25 of the server? If not, the problem is not with
Outlook. Have you verified the server name is correct?
How often are you polling for mail? If it's more often than 10 minutes,
you
may be timing out your requests to your server.

Yes, here is the error message with number.
Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (smtp) e-mail server
0x80042109.

This user is our salesman in another state.
I was thinking maybe his isp is blocking the email thinking that
it could be spam.
Thanks for replying and please advise.
