Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up CPUs, slows down sending, and causes a multitude
of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date
A/V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:

For the past couple of months, I have had no success sending either
attached or embedded .jpg files to my e-mail. I get a server timed-out
message. I can receive e-mails with and without pictures and I can e-mail
regular text e-mails with no problem. I have reduced the picture files to
their smallest size, created a new e-mail account with the idea that the
old one was damaged, set the time-out limit to the highest point - all
with no success.Any suggestions?
