outlokk express

[veekay]

Can anyone tell me how I can get my outlook express to send my emails. I receive them but when I try to reply or to send a new email I get this message
An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'test', Account: 'xxxxxxl', Server: 'xxxxxxx', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '451 Invalid Smtp line - Should end with CRLF', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 451, Error Number: 0x800CCC6A
obviously the account and server aren't xxxx!

Isn't outlook express obsolete now? Could that have something to do with it?

Hi There

Here are some instructions for you to follow to see test your access to port 25

Testing your access to port 25You can check to see if your email is being blocked by using a telnet client. If you can connect to the outgoing mailserver on port 25, this will confirm that your problem mostly likely lies with the Outlook Express application, or your settings. To do the test:

1. Click the Start button, then RUN
2. In the RUN prompt, type 'cmd' (on Windows NT/2000/XP) or 'Command' on Windows 95/98/ME
3. In the new window, type 'telnet relay.plus.net 25' then press enter. Take care in your typing as you may not see what you type so its easy to make a mistake. If you do, its best to start again
4. You should be connected to the mailserver - you should see a response that begins with "220." which confirms the port 25 is open. If you don't get the "220" response, either the mailserver is not operating properly (check service status), you're not connected to the internet or something on your system may be blocking port 25

Let me know how it goes
