Here's a quick question...

When I hit "send and receive"...I get the status window as it checks all my
accounts.

But when done, I am left with this error message (about 4 times):

An unknown error has occurred. Protocol: SMTP, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x80004005

Now, All of the mail accounts appear to clear...each email account has a
checkmark next to it (not an "X".).

So, it seems to work alright...just wodering what the error messages are
for...and why they keep appearing.

Thanks!

"Port: 0" is the key. See Bruce's reply in the other group.

See replies to your SAME post that you separately MULTI-posted in other
newsgroups. Now you'll have to remember to which other newsgroups you
multi-posted and go check each of them for replies instead of
maintaining the discussion within a single cross-posted thread.

Learn to cross-post:

N multi-posted copies will consume N times the disk space for each of
the separate copies of the same post. Cross-posted messages have just
*one* copy on the server with links in the newsgroups back to the same
single copy. Multi-posting wastes disk space on the server. Yes, your
post may be small but remember that you consume N times the space on one
server and then do so again on all the newsgroups servers worldwide.
You waste more bandwidth getting N copies of your multi-posted message
distributed to all the newsgroups servers worldwide. Cross-posting has
just one copy of the message on an NNTP server, and only one copy gets
propagated to other NNTP servers.

To those visiting the newsgroups, cross-posting helps them see ALL the
replies from those in the other RELATED newsgroup to which you linked
your post. That way, they don't waste their time duplicating similar
replies.

Don't cross-post to more groups than needed if at all. Many consider
cross-posting to more than 4 groups as rude and may filter out your
post. The more groups you add, the less likely that they are related,
the less accurate or focused are the targeted groups, or some of the
included groups may already be encompassed by an included parent group.
If they are subgroups under a topic, choose whether you will be specific
or general in the targeted groups to which you post. Usenet-ignorants
that shotgun their posts across multiple groups trying to capture as
large an audience as possible will offend netizens with the poor aim.
Multi-posting instead of cross-posting when shotgunning across multiple
groups evidences you as a newbie, troll, or spammer.
