Just found out if I use Outgoing Mail Server port 465, I can
receive mail
but it takes 20 seconds trying to send the outging first.
The outgoing mail doesn't get sent.

I asked if there was a new error message. Is there? Possibly a 550
relaying error?

Hi Bruce,
I did not see any 550 relaying error, and I went back to port 465
and it no longer will receive if there is mail in the outbox.
hrrrumph, Mike



Elaborate on this conflicting statement:

it takes 20 seconds trying to send the outging first.
The outgoing mail doesn't get sent.

Does it go or not? Does it go but also remain in the Outbox?

Does Not go.

Is Send Messages Immediately checked? I cannot fathom that if the message
is not sent due to incorrect settings or the like, that there would not
be an error message.

Sorry Bruce, using port 465 for Outgoing mail will receive email if you
wait
long enough.
It will Not send email, it stays in the outbox and does Not go to the
recipient.
The error message is;

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'Home', Server:
'smtp.charter.net',
Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060,
Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Port 25 works exactly the same as port 465 (shown above).
