I need help. All of a sudden I cannot send or receive email messages. I
have not changed any of my settings in outlook express, they are set the way
they always have been. My internet connection is through my satellite dish,
so I'm always connected. I receive the following error:

*The connection to the server has failed. Account: ',
Server:
'smtp.dishmail.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure (SSL): Yes, Socket
Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

same error with the pop.dishmail.net server

I don't know what to do!

Troubleshooting error messages that you receive when you are using OL and OE
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/813514

Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection and even Symantec says it's not necessary:

QP
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

Are you connected to Dish when this happens or to another ISP?
