Could I persuade you to share the error message with us in its entirety?
Please copy and paste it into this thread.

If it is in an OE Dialog Box, copy/paste is a little different than
normal.

Using XP and IE6 I can send text message to anyone or myself but if I add
attachment or in line JPG it will not go out. Server error, been working
with my ISP support over one hour with no progress.
Anyone see this before and know what's up?
