What the hell are you talking about? Very little of your post has anything
to do with Outlook, and that which does has absolutely no details.
"online, but did not check operation"
Why not? What would be the point of checking if Outlook was configured to
be online and then not test if it made a difference? That's like saying you
have a pressure guage but didn't bother to use it to check your tires so you
still don't know if they're properly inflated, so why would you care if you
had a pressure guage or not?
"no longer reach web page"
And what does that have to do with Outlook which uses e-mail protocol to
connect to mail server, not HTTP web protocol to connect to a web server?
"or phone"
Oh yeah, like that's relevant to Outlook.
"he blamed"
Who blamed? You really think we're sitting atop your shoulder watching what
is going on in your personal life?
"problem on Publisher"
And, again, what has that to do with Outlook? Outlook is an e-mail client,
not a word process, like Publisher, generating content that might be stored
in a doc file or on a web site.
"does not work to send messages"
Oh yes, very detailed ... NOT! So prove that Outlook cannot send e-mail by
showing *us* the error message(s) that you get.
--- Posting Hints ---
ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here is
looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you don't
well explain your situation by providing the details that you already know,
don't expect others to know what is your situation. Explain YOUR computing
environment and just what actions you take to reproduce the problem.
Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go on
(no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually move on
to the next post and never return to yours.

When using a webnews-for-dummies interface (e.g., Microsoft's Communities,
Google Groups, or a leech site using a forum-to-Usenet proxy), those are
gateways to Usenet. Despite the pretense of a forum, you are participating
in a newsgroup (aka Usenet).

Regarding error or status messages:
- Do NOT omit the message.
- Do NOT describe the message.
- Do NOT summarize the message.
- Do NOT paraphrase the message.
- Do NOT truncate the message.
- Do show the ENTIRE message (but munge or star out personal info,
like your username in an e-mail address but not the domain).
- DETAIL the steps to reproduce the error or problem.
Bye.
