AVG and Outlook Express problems

I am having problems with AVG free and OE. I can receive mails fine, but when I send them they do not arrive and I do not get an error message for hours after.
I am on Pipex and am using Pipex's SMTP addy as needed.
Can anyone help?

Have you had this problem long, made any changes recently? You are using the current version aren't you - V7.5? I'm not aware of any issues when using OE with AVG.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0

I'm sure this is one of the occasions when uninstalling and re-installing AVG is the fixEx forum ambassador

Hubby can send using OE and no AVG same email account.
Yep new version. New hard drive so I have to set it up all again.
Closing AVG makes no difference though, I still cannot send. Is AVG the problem?
Hubby said to try to uninstall OE which I think is a stupid idea as it is something blocking the mail somewhere.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Quick Grabbit, Freebies, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning and the UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Don't think that you can uninstall OE but there may be a repair option. It would not take long to uninstall AVG and start with a clean install though.:doh: Blue text on this forum usually signifies hyperlinks, so click on them!..:wall:0
