Could be a server issue with your email provider then. Have you checked their own help pages at all, or had a look to see if they're carrying out any maintenance?Where there's a will, there's a way to get something cheaper from somewhere else!!0

1 Try smtp-1.opaltelecom.net
OR
2. Check that the "my server requires authentication" is ticked
(tools- accounts - properties - servers)
seems to be the standard these days.0 -
They have probably changed the outgoing mail server name, (SMTP server) so you will need to rename it as above, or check with your ISP as to what server you should be using.No free lunch, and no free laptop
