>> Hello:
>>
>> I am running Outlook 2003, Vista Home Premium, and Windows One Care over
>> a
>> dsl connection to AT&T/SBC.
>>
>> Everything worked fine until about 10 days ago when I began receiving
>> intermittent errors when sending or receiving e-mail. I finally had to
>> switch to manual send/receive just to control number of failed attempts.
>> I
>> made no other changes on any of my settings. Eventually, after several
>> passes on each occasion, I could retrieve and/or send e-mail.
>>
>> Today, I can no longer send e-mail at all, no matter how often I try. I
>> get
>> error message that smtp server not responding. I've gone on line via web
>> interface and confirm I can send and receive e-mail from this account.
>>
>> I just wasted an hour + with AT&T/SBC tech support who confirm all of my
>> server settings are correct, but can not diagnose error. They claim
>> there
>> are no problems on server and contend it is a software problem.
>>
>> Any suggestions?
>>
>> Many thanks!
