Not being able to send emails really is only caused by four things

1. Not having the full email address in the box if it pops up asking for password.

Correct by putting full emailaddress@yourdomain.com in the box.



2. Incorrect password

Correct by logging into your cpanel and go to Mail / Add Remove Manage email accounts and reset your password.

3. Incorrect Authentication Settings in Outlook express.

Correct by

Tools / Accounts / Properties / Server

And under the servers Menu should not have

Login Using Password Authentication, SHOULD NOT BE CHECKED

But check this one instead: My Server Requires Authentication SHOULD BE CHECKED.

4. Your ISP blocking port 25

Correct by


Tools / Accounts / Properties / Advanced

change the outgoing port number from 25 to 26
