Default socket error 10053

Yes, Windows firewall has never been enabled.

Although less common, a firewall can cause the error. Make sure the
Windows Firewall is disabled since you are using a third party one. Having
two running at the same time can interfere with each other.

Nope, we used TrendMicro, and I have removed it from my PC just to
monitor the error. Problem still remains.

There is a possibility the problem may be within our firewall (a
WatchGuard Firebox), and I'm in contact with techsupport for solution.
So far, there is no resolution from them yet.

Hi
Below is an error that I get sometimes when "sending" email. Some
internet advices mentioned that it might have to do with virus
software. So not only I disabled virus software, I uninstalled it
completely, but the error still occurred. So, for my case, virus
software didn't seem to be the cause. The strange thing is that the
error did not happen every time I sent email. It happened sporadically
throughout the day and always at the moment I sent a message. When it
happened, all I needed to do was to click Send/Recv button again and
the message got sent ok.

I also tried to use port 5190 instead of the standard port 25 in
account properties, but that didn't help either.

Please help solve this problem.
Thank you
Steve
